Role of the Accessory Gene Regulator <i>agr</i> in Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Pathogenesis

15 Mar 2011

Abstract excerpt

The molecular basis underlying the pathogenic success of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) is not completely understood, but differential gene expression has been suggested to account at least in part for the high virulence of CA-MRSA strains. Here, we show that the agr gene regulatory system has a crucial role in the development of skin infections in the most prevalent...
