Bacteria of the genus Staphylococcus are a significant a challenge for medicine, as many species are resistant to multiple antibiotics and even to all of the antibiotics used. One of the approaches to develop new therapeutics to treat staphylococcal infections is the use of bacteriophages specif-ic to these bacteria or lysins of such bacteriophages capable to hydrolyze the cell walls of these bacteria. In this study, a new bacteriophage St_134 specific to Staphylococcus epedermidis was de-scribed. This small podophage belonging to the Andhravirus genus showed relatively wide host range and was able to infect more than 60 strain of Staphylococcus spp., including a clinical strain from the Staphylococcus aureus complex. Two genes encoding different phage lysins were identi-fied in the Ste134 genome. Both lysins LysSte134_1 and LysSte134_2 were produced in Escherichia coli cells. Endolysin LysSte134_1 was demonstrated catalytic activity against a wide panel of staphylococcal peptidoglycans (4 species, 6 strains), was active against S. aureus and S. epidermidis planktonic cultures and destroyed biofilms formed by clinical strains of S. aureus and S. epider-midis.
