Unstable chromosome rearrangements in Staphylococcus aureus cause phenotype switching associated with persistent infections

Staphylococcus aureus small-colony variants (SCVs) are associated with unusually chronic and persistent infections despite active antibiotic treatment. The molecular basis for this clinically important phenomenon is poorly understood, hampered by the instability of the SCV phenotype. Here we investi...
