Abstract
Few reports described infections with CC398 methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA). We compared the genetic background of CC398 MSSA strains from nasal carriage and knee arthroplasty infection. DNA microarray analysis shows acquisition of particular adhesin, iron capture system and immune defense evasion mechanisms. These characteristics could explain pathogenesis in this type of infection.Entities:
