Abstract
Abstract: Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) combined with mass spectrometry was used to characterize the exo-proteome secreted by two strains (ER13 and ER21) representing community acquired methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) belonging to clonal complex 80 (CC80). Common spots were detected between the 2 gels using the Progenesis SameSpots software. Two hundred and fifty-one and 312 spots from the exo-proteome of ER13 and ER21 were resolved, respectively. 2DE overlap comparison showed that 59 spots were shared. LC–MS/MS analysis identified 57 proteins from these spots comprising about 21% extracellular, 48% cytoplasmic, 2% cytoplasmic membrane, 2% cell wall, and 26% with unknown localization. The identified proteins were classified with respect to their Gene Ontology (GO) annotation as ∼24% virulence determinants and toxins, ∼17% involved in carbohydrate metabolism, ∼14% involved in environmental stress, and ∼12% associated with cell division. The identification of the enterotoxin B from the exo-products of both strains used in our study, as belonging to CC80 was interesting. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
