CC8 MRSA Strains Harboring SCCmec Type IVc are Predominant in Colombian Hospitals
PLoS ONE, 2012 Contexte Des rapports récents soulignent l'incursion du SARM associé à la communauté dans les établissements de soins de santé. Cependant, la connaissance de ce phénomène reste limitée en Amérique latine. L'objectif de cette étude était d'évaluer l'épidémiologie moléculaire du SARM dans trois hôpitaux de soins tertiaires à Medellín, en Colombie ...

Tandem mobilization of anti-phage defenses alongside SCCmec elements in staphylococci
Nature CommunicationsRecent research has identified multiple immune systems that bacteria use to protect themselves from viral infections. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which these systems horizontally spread, especially among bacterial pathogens. Here, we investigate antiviral defenses in staphylococci, opportunistic pathogens that constitute leading ...
