Abstract excerpt
The global regulator sar in Staphylococcus aureus controls the synthesis of a variety of cell wall and extracellular proteins, many of which are putative virulence factors. The sar locus in strain RN6390 contains a 339-bp open reading frame (sarA) and an 860-bp upstream region. Transcriptional analyses of this locus revealed three different transcripts of 0.58, 0.84, and 1.15 kb (designated sarA, sarC, and sarB,...
