arcAa (arcAACME) : arginine catabolic mobile element arginine deiminase [1]

• this version of arginine deiminase is found in the Arginine Catabolic Mobile Element (ACME) that is sometimes found alongside the SCCmec cassette, particularly in USA300 MRSA strains. It encodes an arginine deiminase pathway that is actively transcribed during anaerobic growth, increasing the virulence of this clade. The "a" after "arcA" is to differentiate this version from the constitutive "c" version found in the core staphylococcal genome.
