Clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus exhibit diversity in fnb genes and adhesion to human fibronectin.
OBJECTIVES: The fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBPs) of Staphylococcus aureus are involved in the pathogenesis of infection, but their characteristics in clinical isolates are incompletely defined. The aim of this study was to evaluate phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of the FnBPs of a large...
