Decoding the Role of Glycans in Malaria.

abstract：:Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of chronic and relapsing infection, especially when the ability of the immune system to sterilize a focus of infection is compromised (e.g., because of a foreign body or in the cystic fibrosis lung). Chronic infections are associated with slow-growing colony phenotypes of S. aur...
