Abstract

ABSTRACT We describe an unusual clinical strain of catalase-negative methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus sensu stricto. Sequence analysis of its catalase gene showed 99.60% identities to the catalase genes of the reference strains. A 5-base deletion, however, led to a shift of the nucleotide reading frame and a loss of the enzymatic activity.
