金黄色葡萄球菌重复序列（STAR）元件是在金黄色葡萄球菌的两个基因间区域确定的序列。该元素在单个金黄色葡萄球菌菌株中存在13至21个拷贝，同源基因间位置的元素长度不同。元件序列由几个小而异常富gc的直接重复序列和反复出现的中间序列组成。此外，类似star的元素可能存在于相关的葡萄球菌物种中。
The Staphylococcus aureus repeat (STAR) element is a sequence identified in two intergenic regions in S. aureus. The element is found in 13 to 21 copies in individual S. aureus strains, and elements in the homologous intergenic location are variable in length. The element sequence consists of several small and unusually GC-rich direct repeats with recurring intervening sequences. In addition, STAR-like elements may be present in related staphylococcal species.
