Abstract excerpt
Previous studies suggested that the exoprotein-deficient phenotype of a Delta 1058::Tn551 insertion/deletion mutant of Staphylococcus aureus S6C was not owing to the insertion/deletion event, but instead was owing to the inherent instability of the agrC gene during transduction of the Delta 1058::Tn551 region into S6C. The purpose of the following study was to examine S6C as a potential source of...
