Species code:	STAA1
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Firmicutes; Bacillales; Staphylococcus (TaxID: 418127) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Gram-positive nonmotile coccus that grows in aerobic and anaerobic conditions, in which it forms grape-like clusters. Staphylococcus aureus is one of the major causes of community- acquired and hospital-acquired infections. It produces numerous toxins including superantigens that cause unique disease entities such as toxic-shock syndrome and staphylococcal scarlet fever. Staphylococcus aureus (strain Mu3 / ATCC 700698) is a methicillin-resistant strain that was isolated from the sputum of a patient with pneumonia after surgery who had failed vancomycin therapy.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: Animal pathogen in Mammalia Number of membranes: 1 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of STAA1 entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 2684 (468 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 2216 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)

Genome structure:	Chromosome EMBL accession number AP009324 (circular; 2,880,168 bp) (download entry) (download Genome Reviews).
