A Hypervirulent Community‐Associated Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Sequence Type 59 Strain Shows Enhanced Cytotoxicity and Accessory Gene Regulator Activation Compared With Strain USA300

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Different clonal groups of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), particularly community‐acquired MRSA (CA‐MRSA), have caused widespread outbreaks and transmission in various regions. Methods We used the North American CA‐MRSA epidemic strain USA300, the Asian CA‐MRSA epidemic strain YNSA7, and ATCC43300 as research subjects ...

Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) characterization and molecular analysis for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and novel SCCmec subtype IVg isolated from bovine milk in Korea [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2005
To identify the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) types of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated from bovine milk, and examine the genetic relatedness between MRSA from bovine milk and MRSA from human isolates.Antimicrobial susceptibility tests were performed on MRSA isolated from bovine milk.

High frequency of SCCmec type IV and multidrug-resistant SCCmec type I among hospital acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates in Birjand Imam Reza Hospital, Iran

Iranian Journal of Microbiology, 2022
Background and Objectives: The ever-increasing of antibiotic resistance in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become a major threat to public health worldwide. Molecular typing is used to determine the source of MRSA infections as well as to control and prevent the spread of these pathogens.

Genetic and phenotypic diversity of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus among Japanese inpatients in the early 1980s

Scientific Reports, 2021
To trace the linkage between Japanese healthcare-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (HA-MRSA) strains in the early 1980s and the 2000s onward, we performed molecular characterizations using mainly whole-genome sequencing.

Genetic Diversity of Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates From Two Tertiary Care Hospitals in Sulaymaniyah, Iraq, Characterized by spa Typing, Coagulase VNTR Sequencing, and REP‐PCR

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus remains a major cause of health care‐associated infection in high‐risk units such as burn and cancer wards. In settings where advanced genotyping schemes are not routinely available, combining complementary molecular typing methods can improve characterization of genetic diversity for surveillance ...

Intestinal carriage of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in nasal MRSA carriers hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: The current data regarding the correlation between the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clones carried in the nasal cavity and digestive tract are inadequate. METHODS: MRSA strains were isolated from both the feces and nasal
