CC -!- FUNCTION: Peptide which can recruit, activate and subsequently lyse
CC human neutrophils, thus eliminating the main cellular defense against
CC infection. Stimulates the secretion of the chemotactic factor
CC interleukin-8 (IL-8). The ensuing activation process triggers an
CC inflammatory response in the host, thus contributing greatly to
CC virulence. Also possesses hemolytic activity, which may contribute to
CC the development of disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17994102}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Up-regulated by agr. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17994102}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Peptide production is higher in most prevalent
CC community-associated MRSA strains than in hospital-associated MRSA
CC strains.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the phenol-soluble modulin alpha peptides
CC family. {ECO:0000305}.
