Structure of the host cell recognition and penetration machinery of a <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> bacteriophage

2019-08-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of infections in humans. The emergence of virulent, antibiotic-resistant strains of S. aureus is a significant public health concern. Most virulence and resistance factors in S. aureus are encoded by mobile genetic elements, and transduction by bacteriophages represents the main mechanism for horizontal gene transfer. The baseplate is a specialized struc...
