Phylogenetic Analysis and Virulence Characteristics of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST45 in China: a Hyper-Virulent Clone Associated with Bloodstream Infections

Abstract: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST45 is epidemic worldwide. This study contributed to the awareness of the Chinese hyper-virulent MRSA ST45 strains and served as a timely reminder of its wide dissemination of clonotypes. Further, we provide novel insights for prevention from the perspective of bloodstream infections. ST45-SCC mec V is a clonotype deserving special attention in China, and we performed genetic and phenotypic analyses for the first time … Show more

“…Gene chp enhances staphylococcal virulence by regulating cell wall synthesis and metabolism, vesicle formation and release, and biofilm formation, all of which affect the growth, attachment and invasion ability of Staphylococcus. 38 In conclusion, the fortuitous elimination of this virulence factor during the transmission process is highly advantageous for foreseeable applications of KYS-164. We note that an investigation conducted by Fernández et al 30 considered the biosafety of various Staphylococcus strains, and examined six different sources of S. warneri .…”
