Variation in the presence of neuraminidase genes among Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates with identical sequence types.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jun 2006

Pettigrew Melinda M, Fennie Kristopher P, York Matthew P, Daniels Janeen, Ghaffar Faryal

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae frequently colonizes the upper respiratory tract of young children and is an important cause of otitis media and invasive disease. Carriage is more common than disease, yet the genetic factors that predispose a given clone for disease are not known. The relationship between capsule type, genetic background, and virulence is complex, and important questions remain regarding how...
