Prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus protein A (spa) mutants in the community and hospitals in Oxfordshire.
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcal protein A (spa) is an important virulence factor which enables Staphylococcus aureus to evade host immune responses. Genotypes known as "spa-types", based on highly variable Xr region sequences of the spa-gene, are frequently used to classify strains. A weakness...
