Prophage-encoded methyltransferase drives adaptation of community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

R. J. Ulrich, M. Podkowik, R. Tierce, I. Irnov, G. Putzel, N. Samhadaneh, K. A. Lacey, D. Boff, S. M. Morales, S. Makita, T. K. Karagounis, E. E. Zwack, C. Zhou, R. Kim, K. Drlica, , B. Shopsin

This study identifies a prophage-encoded methyltransferase, pamA, that enhances virulence in CA-MRSA by epigenetically upregulating fnbA, promoting biofilm formation and abscess size.
