Expression of genes involved in the pathogenesis of Staphylococcus aureus is controlled by global regulatory loci, including two-component regulatory systems and transcriptional regulators. The staphylococcal-specific SarA family of transcription regulators control large numbers of target genes involved in virulence, autolysis, biofilm formation, stress responses and metabolic processes, and are recognized as potential therapeutic targets. Expression of some of these important regulators has bee ...[more]
