Cysteine/Histidine-Dependent Amidohydrolase/Peptidase (CHAP)-Displayed Nano Phages: Antimicrobial Function against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Emergence and prevalence of multi drug resistance strains such as Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) call for new antibacterial option. Endolysins as a new option is suggested. The phage display technique is suggested for production of recombinant endolysins. The recombinant endolysins displayed nano phages specifically lysis bacteria, which penetrate to the depth of tissue and the effective dose is reduced.

Methods

CHAPK gene was ligated in T7Select vector arms in T7Select10-3b cloning kit. To produce recombinant nano phages, ligation reaction was added directly to the packaging extract. Recombinant nano phages were amplified by Double Layer Agar assay (DLA). The recombinant nano phages were characterized using TEM. Size of recombina
