Pan-genome analysis reveals the molecular basis of niche adaptation of <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> strains
2019-04-10
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus epidermidis is the most commonly isolated species from human skin and the second leading cause of bloodstream infections. Here, we performed a large-scale comparative study without any pre-assigned reference to identify genomic determinants associated with their diversity and adaptation as a “double-side spy”, a skin dominant colonization, and a successful pathogen. The pan-genome of S. epidermidis...
