Methicillin-resistant S. aureus shows SdrC-dependent adhesion forces. (A–D) Adhesion force (A and C) and rupture distance (B and D) histograms obtained at 100-ms (A and B) or 1-s (C and D) contact time in PBS for six cell pairs of the clinically relevant MRSA252 strain. (E–H) Results obtained at 1 s for six cell pairs of the MRSA252∆sdrC mutant deficient in SdrC (E and F) and for six pairs of MRSA252 and MRSA252∆sdrC cells (G and H). (Insets) Representative force signatures. All curves were obtained using an applied force of 250 pN and an approach and retraction speed of 1.0 µm/s.
