Abstract excerpt

Increases in the incidence and severity of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) infections have spawned efforts to define unique virulence properties among prevalent strains. Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL), a pore-forming cytotoxin, has garnered attention because of its epidemiologic association with CA-MRSA. Using both the clinical isolate LAC, which is representative of...
