Identification of superantigen genes<i>speM</i>,<i>ssa</i>, and<i>smeZ</i>in invasive strains of beta-hemolytic group C and G streptococci recovered from humans

1 Dec 2003

Abstract excerpt

Group C and G Streptococcus dysgalactiae subspecies equisimilis (GCSE and GGSE) cause a substantial percentage of invasive disease caused by beta-hemolytic streptococci. To determine whether Streptococcus pyogenes superantigen (SAg) genes commonly exist within these organisms, 20 recent invasive GCSE and GGSE human isolates and one group G Streptococcus canis human isolate were tested for the presence of SAg...
