Abstract
In Figure 1A, the stereochemistry of the ribitol phosphate was wrongly displayed and was lacking in Figure 1B. The correct structures of the molecules are displayed below, and we further added fully drawn phosphate residues for additional clarity. The figure is replaced in the article. Wall Teichoic Acid in Staphylococcus aureus Host Interactionvan Dalen et al.Trends in MicrobiologyJune 12, 2020In BriefStaphylococcus aureus is a major opportunistic human pathogen that frequently causes disease in community and hospital settings. Nasal colonization is an important risk factor for developing invasive disease. Cell wall-associated glycopolymers called wall teichoic acids (WTAs) contribute to efficient nasal colonization by S. aureus. In addition, WTAs are key targets of the host immune system due to their accessibility and high abundance on the S. aureus cell surface. In this review we discuss the new insights into interactions between the host and S. Full-Text PDF Open Access
