Genetic diversity in T1M1 group A streptococci in relation to clinical outcome of infection.

The Journal of infectious diseases - 1 Nov 1992

Norgren M, Norrby A, Holm S E

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity was found at high frequency downstream of the emm1 gene among T1M1 group A streptococci (GAS) isolated in Scandinavia during a recent epidemic. Clonal variation was also seen in the speA and speB genes but at much lower frequency; no variation was detected in the speC gene. Erythrogenic toxin A was found to be expressed at low levels in all strains; erythrogenic toxins B and C were produced in...
