Staphopains A and B are part of the staphylococcal proteolytic cascade (SPC) and may contribute to tissue invasion and metastatic infections of Staphylococcus aureus. Staphopain A, along with Staphopain B, may contribute to septic shock through the release of bradykinin and S-kinin from human kininogens. This activity required proteolytically-active Staphopain A and was augmented by Staphopain B.
