(A) Wall teichoic acid (WTA)-dependent infection of S. aureus phage SA97. The phage SA97 lysate was spotted onto lawns of wild-type RN4220 (WT), ΔtagO mutant (ΔtagO), and tagO-complemented (ΔtagO pBR474::tagO) strains. Plaque formation indicates successful adsorption and infection by the phage SA97. EOP relative to WT strain was 7.5 × 10−2 ± 0.2 × 10−2 on ΔtagO pBR474::tagO strain; (B) WTA-dependent adsorption ability of S. aureus phage SA97. The adsorption efficiency relative to the adsorption to wild-type strain RN4220, which was set to 100%, is indicated. The data shown are the mean values from three independent measurements and the error bars represent the standard deviations.
