TABLE 3.
The control sequences obtained from GenBank were as follows: agr group 1, SAAGRAB sequence, accession no. X52543; agr group 2, SA502a, accession no. AF001782; agr group 3, RN8462, accession no. AF001783. The sequences of the AgrD signal peptides are boxed. The sequences were aligned by MegAlign software (DNAStar). The signal peptide sequence of S. epidermidis Tü 3298 was derived from the study of Otto et al. (12). Sequence differences are underlined.
