Rapid Molecular Genetic Subtyping of Serotype M1 Group A <i>Streptococcus</i> Strains
1 Apr 1999
Abstract excerpt
Serotype M1 group A Streptococcus, the most common cause of invasive disease in many case series, generally have resisted extensive molecular subtyping by standard techniques (e.g., multilocus enzyme electrophoresis, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis). We used automated sequencing of the sic gene encoding streptococcal inhibitor of complement and of a region of the chromosome with direct repeat sequences to...
