Population genetics and linkage analysis of loci within the FCT region of Streptococcus pyogenes.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 2007

Kratovac Zerina, Manoharan Anand, Luo Feng, Lizano Sergio, Bessen Debra E

Abstract excerpt

The FCT regions of Streptococcus pyogenes strains encode a variety of cell wall-anchored surface proteins that bind the extracellular matrix of the human host and/or give rise to pilus-like appendages. Strong linkage is evident between transcription-regulatory loci positioned within the FCT and emm regions and the emm pattern genotype marker for preferred infection of the throat or skin. These findings provide a...
