Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus is a dangerous human pathogen characterized by alarmingly increasing antibiotic resistance. Accumulating evidence suggests the role of Spl proteases in staphylococcal virulence. Spl proteases have restricted, non-overlapping substrate specificity, suggesting that they may constitute a first example of a proteolytic system in bacteria. SplA, SplB, and SplD were previously characterized in...
