Wall Teichoic Acid Glycosylation Governs <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content> Nasal Colonization
ABSTRACT Nasal colonization by the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is a major risk factor for hospital- and community-acquired infections. A key factor required for nasal colonization is a cell surface-exposed zwitterionic glycopolymer, termed wall teichoic acid (WTA). However, the precise mech...
