Significant Variability exists in the Toxicity of Global Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus Lineages.

M. Laabei, S. Peacock, B. Blane, S. L. Baines, T. P. Stinear, B. Howden, R. C. Massey

The paper assesses toxicity variability among global MRSA lineages and identifies Agr mutations linked to reduced toxicity, highlighting the role of undefined genes in toxin regulation.

The emergence of successful Streptococcus pyogenes lineages through convergent pathways of capsule loss and recombination directing high toxin expression

C. E. Turner, M. T. Holden, B. Blane, C. Horner, S. J. Peacock, S. Sriskandan

The paper identifies convergent evolutionary pathways in Streptococcus pyogenes lineages through recombination at the nga-slo locus and capsule loss, associated with increased toxin expression and disease success.
