The Signal Peptide of Staphylococcus aureus Panton Valentine Leukocidin LukS Component Mediates Increased Adhesion to Heparan Sulfates

Staphylococcus aureus necrotizing pneumonia is a severe disease caused by S. aureus strains carrying the Panton Valentine leukocidin (PVL) genes (lukS-PV & lukF-PV) encoded on various bacteriophages (such as phiSLT). Clinical PVL+ strains isolated from necrotizing pneumonia display an increased...
