Clonal diversity and genomic characterization of Panton-valentine Leukocidin (PVL)-positive Staphylococcus aureus in Tehran, Iran

BACKGROUND: Some Staphylococcus aureus strains produce Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL), a bi-component pore-forming toxin, which causes leukocyte lysis and tissue necrosis. Currently, there is very limited information on the molecular epidemiology of PVL-encoding S. aureus strains in Iran. This st...
