[Antibiotic AL-87 induction of changes in the fatty acid composition of phospholipids and neutral lipids in a sensitive strain of Staphylococcus aureus 209P].
Under the action of the sub-bacteriostatic concentration (0.02 microgram/ml) of antibiotic AL-87 there formed in all the fractions of phospholipids and neutral lipids of S. aureus 209P unsaturated branched fatty acids not detected in the control and the content of shorter chain saturated branched fatty acids increased. This means that there were changes leading to increased lipid fluidity. The findings showed that fatty acids of the neutral lipids and phospholipids were involved in regulation of the bacterial cell functional state and participated in this case in providing increased membrane fluidity and permeability.
