The Staphylococcus aureus allelic genetic loci for serotype 5 and 8 capsule expression contain the type-specific genes flanked by common genes

S Sau, N Bhasin, ER Wann, JC Lee… - …, 1997 - microbiologyresearch.org
The nucleotide sequences of two gene clusters, cap5 and cap8, involved in the synthesis of
Staphylococcus aureus type 5 and type 8 capsular polysaccharides (CPs), respectively,
were determined. Each gene cluster contained 16 ORFs, which were named cap5A through
cap5P for type 5 CP and cap8A through cap8P for type 8 CP. The cap5 and cap8 loci were
allelic and were mapped to the Sma lG fragment in the standard Sma l map of Staph, aureus
strain NCTC 8325. The predicted gene products of cap5A through cap5G and cap5L …
