Abstract: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) ST398 carries two hyaluronidase genes, hysA and its homologue hysAνSaβ, the latter located on the genomic island νSaβ. However, the prevalence of hysAνSaβ and its contribution to virulence remain unclear. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3201/eid2501.181136
Abstract: Using whole-genome sequencing, we identified a community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) sequence type (ST) 398 type V (5C2&5) isolate (typically found in China) in Australia in 2017. This CA-MRSA ST398 variant was highly virulent, similar… read more here.
