Stochastic Expression of Sae-Dependent Virulence Genes during <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content> Biofilm Development Is Dependent on SaeS

ABSTRACT The intricate process of biofilm formation in the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus involves distinct stages during which a complex mixture of matrix molecules is produced and modified throughout the developmental cycle. Early in biofilm development, a subpopulation of cells detaches fro...
