SarA positively controls bap-dependent biofilm formation in Staphylococcus aureus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Aug 2005

Trotonda María Pilar, Manna Adhar C, Cheung Ambrose L, Lasa Iñigo, Penadés José R

Abstract excerpt

The biofilm-associated protein Bap is a staphylococcal surface protein involved in biofilm formation. We investigated the influence of the global regulatory locus sarA on bap expression and Bap-dependent biofilm formation in three unrelated Staphylococcus aureus strains. The results showed that Bap-dependent biofilm formation was diminished in the sarA mutants by an agr-independent mechanism. Complementation...
