Elevated acetate kinase (ackA) gene expression, activity, and biofilm formation observed in methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)

Abstract Background Staphylococcus aureus spreads its infections through biofilms. This usually happens in the stationary phase of S. aureus growth where it utilizes accumulated acetate as a carbon source via the phosphotrans-acetylase-acetate kinase (Pta-Ack) pathway. In which acetate kinase (ackA)...
