Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The presence of the arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) in Staphylococcus aureus has been reported to enhance the colonization of the human host. The aim of this study was to determine the genetic organization of composite islands harbouring ACME. METHODS: Two ACME-positive S. aureus isolates obtained during two different surveys conducted in the Netherlands and Poland were characterized in this...
