Lysozyme Counteracts β-Lactam Antibiotics by Promoting the Emergence of L-Form Bacteria
β-lactam antibiotics inhibit bacterial cell wall assembly and, under classical microbiological culture conditions that are generally hypotonic, induce explosive cell death. Here, we show that under more physiological, osmoprotective conditions, for various Gram-positive bacteria, lysis is delayed or...
