Discovery of genes encoding a Streptolysin S-like toxin biosynthetic cluster in a select highly pathogenic methicillin resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> JKD6159 strain

2019-08-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) is a major human pathogen owing to its arsenal of virulence factors, as well as its acquisition of multi-antibiotic resistance. Here we report the identification of a Streptolysin S (SLS) like biosynthetic gene cluster in a highly virulent community-acquired methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolate, JKD6159. Examination of the SLS-like gene cluster i...
