Impact of target site distribution for Type I restriction enzymes on the evolution of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) populations. [PDF]
A limited number of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clones are responsible for MRSA infections worldwide, and those of different lineages carry unique Type I restriction-modification (RM) variants.

The impact of glycopeptide- and methicillin- resistance on "Staphylococcus aureus" and its virulence in localized and systemic infections [PDF]
Adaptation of bacteria to their environment is a necessity to keep their fitness and survival under limiting conditions. In chapter I of this work we demonstrated that adaptation of glycopeptide-resistant S.

Extensive horizontal gene transfer during Staphylococcus aureus co-colonization in vivo. [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal and major pathogen of humans and animals. Comparative genomics of S. aureus populations suggests that colonization of different host species is associated with carriage of mobile genetic elements (MGE), particularly ...
