An 18 kDa Scaffold Protein Is Critical for Staphylococcus epidermidis Biofilm Formation

Virulence of the nosocomial pathogen Staphylococcus epidermidis is crucially linked to formation of adherent biofilms on artificial surfaces. Biofilm assembly is significantly fostered by production of a bacteria derived extracellular matrix. However, the matrix composition, spatial organization, an...
