Mobile Genetic Element-Encoded Cytolysin Connects Virulence to Methicillin Resistance in MRSA

Bacterial virulence and antibiotic resistance have a significant influence on disease severity and treatment options during bacterial infections. Frequently, the underlying genetic determinants are encoded on mobile genetic elements (MGEs). In the leading human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus, MGEs t...
