Jul 16, 2021 · Different genes and their corresponding encoding in Staphylococcus aureus biofilm formation. The aforementioned genes encode different surface proteins to cause S. aureus adherence to the host, its penetration into the host and its colonisation, ultimately leading to biofilm formation and virulence.
