MRSA and MSSA

ABSTRACT: A strategy for the high-throughput screening of a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) encoded peptide library to allow the identification of MRSA and MSSA selective peptides including AMPs. This novel screening approach allows simultaneous screening of cell selective peptides with different uptake mechanisms including lytic peptides and non-lytic CPPs. MRSA and MSSA were incubated with Library-18 (50 uM; corresponding to 39 nM of each library member) under short incubation times (30 min) to ensure collection of both live and apoptotic cells, which allowed selection of lytic peptides as well as non-lytic CPPs. Incubation was followed by washing and lysis and the intracellular and membrane associated library members were extracted and purified by filter centrifugation (between 3,000 and 10,000 Da). T
