“Gene accordions” cause genotypic and phenotypic heterogeneity in clonal populations of Staphylococcus aureus
Gene tandem amplifications can drive bacterial evolution. Here, Belikova et al. identify copy number variations of lipoprotein-encoding genes in Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates, and show that the loci expand and contract during bacterial growth in vitro and in mice, leading to changes in imm...
