Bacteria can form biofilms in natural and clinical environments on both biotic and abiotic
surfaces. The bacterial aggregates embedded in biofilms are formed by their own produced …

Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive opportunistic pathogen that has evolved a
complex regulatory network to control virulence. One of the main functions of this …

Staphylococcus aureus is a notorious opportunistic pathogen causing a plethora of
diseases. Recent research established that once phagocytosed by neutrophils and …

Two-component systems are a dominant form of bacterial signal transduction. The
prototypical two-component system consists of a sensor that responds to a specific input (s) …

In the Gram-positive pathogenic bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, the SaeRS two-
