Assignment of Staphylococcus aureus isolates to clonal complexes based on microarray analysis and pattern recognition

Abstract

A DNA microarray was designed for the rapid genotyping of Staphylococcus aureus. It covers 185 distinct genes and about 300 alleles thereof, including species-specific controls, accessory gene regulator (agr) alleles, genes encoding virulence factors, and microbial surface components recognizing adhesive matrix molecules, capsule type-specific genes, as well as resistance determinants. It was used to examine 100 clinical isolates and reference strains. Relationships of leukocidin and ssl/set (staphylococcal superantigen-like or exotoxin-like) genes were reviewed considering these experimental results as well as published sequences. A good correlation of overall hybridization pattern and multilocus sequence typing was found. Analysis of hybridization profiles thus allowed not only to assess virulence and drug resistance, but also to assign isolates to strains and to clonal complexes. Hybridization data were used to construct a split network tree and to analyse relationships between strains. Allelic variations of a number of genes indicate a division of S. aureus into three major branches that are not in accordance to agr group or capsule-type affiliations. Additionally, there are some isolated lineages, such as ST75, ST93, or ST152. These strains produce aberrant hybridization profiles, indicating that only a part of the gene pool of S. aureus has been investigated yet.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
