Horizontal transfer and phylogenetic distribution of the immune evasion factor tarP
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a major human pathogen, uses the prophage-encoded tarP gene as an important immune evasion factor. TarP glycosylates wall teichoic acid (WTA) polymers, major S. aureus surface antigens, to impair WTA immunogenicity and impede host defence. However,...
