Two TIR-like domain containing proteins in a newly emerging zoonotic Staphyloccoccus aureus strain sequence type 398 are potential virulence factors by impacting on the host innate immune response

Two TIR-like domain containing proteins in a newly emerging zoonotic Staphyloccoccus aureus strain sequence type 398 are potential virulence factors by impacting on the host innate immune response

Staphylococcus aureus, sequence type (ST) 398, is an emerging pathogen and the leading cause of livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections in Europe and North America. This strain is characterised by high promiscuity in terms of host species and also lacks several tr...
