Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus epidemic strain USA300 is a highly successful pathogen. However, the underlying basis of this success is not clear. Now, Thurlow and colleagues (2013) provide evidence linking the bacterial arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) to the dominance of USA300 as a pathogen of the skin.Entities:
