Antibiotic Resistance: A Genetic and Physiological Perspective
MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2025.The development of resistance to antimicrobials and their historical progression are depicted in this graphic. It draws attention to important biochemical, physiological, and genetic factors that contribute to AMR, such as the transmission of genes, the development of biofilms, and the inactivation of antibiotics.

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 36, September 25, 2025.This study proposes a novel model illustrating how quorum sensing (QS) regulates the type III‐A CRISPR‐Cas system in Staphylococcus aureus. The QS regulator AgrA suppresses CRISPR‐Cas activity by downregulating the transcriptional regulators SarA and ArcR.

Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec (SCCmec) Classification and Typing Methods: an Overview
Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2011 Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the main causes of hospital-acquired infections, but since late 1990s also the community-acquired. For better understanding of the S.aureus epidemiology there is an urgent need for creation of new typing method for SCCmec element.

Kasmera, 2014 Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) presents a protein that binds to penicillin, the PBP2a, encoded by the gene mecA, located in a mobile genetic element called the staphylococcal chromosomal cassette (SCCmec).

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 124, Issue 3, Page 189-203, September 2025.COL is an unusual “model” strain of Staphylococcus aureus that exhibits slow growth and multidrug antibiotic tolerance. This phenotype is primarily due to a mutation in Prs, which synthesizes the core metabolite phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). Introduction of the COL Prs allele into the antibiotic‐susceptible strain Newman confers tolerance, while

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2019 Abstract Background Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) elements are highly diverse and have been classified into 13 types. The arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) is an SCC-like element harbouring an arginine deiminase pathway gene cluster (ACME-arc).

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.This study reveals a high prevalence of foodborne S. aureus in northwest Hubei Province, with MRSA strains displaying significantly elevated antibiotic resistance and biofilm‐forming capacities compared to MSSA strains. The high carriage rates of enterotoxin genes across isolates underscore the potential of these strains to contribute to foodborne ...
