Staphylococcus aureus COL: An Atypical Model Strain of MRSA That Exhibits Slow Growth and Antibiotic Tolerance due to a Mutation in PRPP Synthetase Mol. Microbiol. (IF 2.6) Pub Date : 2025-06-10 Claire E. Stevens, Ashley T. Deventer, Paul R. Johnston, Phillip T. Lowe, Alisdair B. Boraston, Joanne K. Hobbs
Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been a pathogen of global concern since its emergence in the 1960s. As one of the first MRSA strains isolated, COL has become a common model strain of S. aureus. Here we report that COL is, in fact, an atypical strain of MRSA that exhibits slow growth and multidrug tolerance. Genomic analysis identified three mutated genes in COL (rpoB, gltX and
