Bridges from hospitals to the laboratory: genetic portraits of methicillin-resistant<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>clones

16 Jan 2004

Abstract excerpt

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) emerged in the early 1960's after the acquisition of the methicillin resistance gene mecA, which is carried by the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec). MRSA seemed to have arisen by multiple introductions of SCCmec into successful methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) lineages. MRSA is one of the most common agents of nosocomial infections...
