Genomic variation and evolution of Staphylococcus aureus.

International journal of medical microbiology : IJMM - 1 Feb 2010

Lindsay Jodi A

Abstract excerpt

The evolution of new human and animal pathogenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus has been due to the accumulation of mobile genetic elements (MGE) encoding methicillin resistance and virulence factors into successful lineages. These include epidemic methicillin-resistant S. aureus in hospitals (EMRSA), community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA), fully vancomycin-resistant MRSA (VRSA) and livestock-associated MRSA...
