Molecular Epidemiological Survey of Staphylococcus lugdunensis Isolates With Variable Number of Repeats in the von Willebrand Factor-Binding Protein Gene
The von Willebrand factor binding protein in Staphylococcus lugdunensis (vWbl) comprises four major regions: the signal peptide (S), the non-repetitive (A) region, the repeat (R) region, and the wall-associated (W) region. Previous studies have demonstrated that the R region contains 10 copies of re...
