Abstract excerpt

Pathogenicity of Staphylococcus aureus is coordinated by the accessory gene regulator (agr) system. Previous studies suggested that agr Group II methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), a polymorphism that has been associated with moderate response to vancomycin, may also be related with overprodu...
