Staphylococcus aureus is a major causative agent of bovine mastitis, a disease considered one of the most economically devastating in the dairy sector. Considering the increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant strains, novel therapeutic approaches efficiently targeting extra- and intracellular bacteria and featuring high activity in the presence of raw milk components are needed. Here, we have screened a library of eighty peptidoglycan hydrolases (PGHs) for high activity against S. aureus in raw bovine milk, twelve of which were selected for further characterization and comparison in time-kill assays. The bacteriocins lysostaphin and ALE-1, and the chimeric PGH M23LST(L)_SH3b2638 reduced bacterial numbers in raw milk to the detection limit within 10 min. Three CHAP-based PGHs (CHAPGH15_SH3bAle1, CHAPK_SH3bLST_H, CHAPH5_LST_H) showed gradually improving activity with increasing dilution of the raw milk. Furthermore, we demonstrated synergistic activity of CHAPGH15_SH3bAle1 and LST when used in combination. Finally, modification of four PGHs (LST, M23LST(L)_SH3b2638, CHAPK_SH3bLST, CHAPGH15_SH3bAle1) with the cell-penetrating peptide TAT significantly enhanced the eradication of intracellular S. aureus in bovine mammary alveolar cells compared to the unmodified parentals in a concentration-dependent manner. |
