Overall, the data identifies a number of new genes and metabolic pathways likely to be critical in S. aureus colonisation (its primary lifestyle) that now require further investigation.

We reveal that genes involved in nitrogen metabolism showed the strongest signal of adaption. As well as antibiotic resistance, riboflavin biosynthesis and quorum sensing regulation (amongst others).

To understand the selective pressures that S. aureus experiences during colonisation, we analysed ~7000 S. aureus genomes from ~1500 individuals to identify protein altering mutations that were enriched.
