Staphylococcus aureus is a versatile opportunistic pathogen whose success is driven by its
ability to adapt to diverse environments and host-imposed stresses. Two-component signal …

Staphylococcus aureus is an opportunistic pathogen. In response to changing host
environments, this bacterium has the capability to switch on selective sets of genes to …

Genome-wide transcriptional profiling studies of the response of Staphylococcus aureus to
cell wall-active antibiotics have led to the discovery of a cell wall stress stimulon of genes …

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), once restricted to hospitals, is
spreading rapidly through the wider community. Resistance to vancomycin, the principal …

We previously reported the first vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA)

Novel classes of antimicrobials are needed to address the challenge of multidrug-resistant
bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Using the architecture …

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections are a global health problem. New
control strategies, including fifth-generation cephalosporins such as ceftaroline, have been …

Staphylococcus aureus accessory gene regulator (agr) locus controls the expression of
virulence factors through a classical two-component signal transduction system that consists …

Resistance to conventional antibiotics has raised worldwide attention. Notably, Methicillin‐
