Genetic diversity of pneumococcal surface protein A of Streptococcus pneumoniae meningitis in German children.

Vaccine - 22 Jan 2007

Heeg Christiane, Franken Carmen, van der Linden Mark, Al-Lahham Adnan, Reinert Ralf René

Abstract excerpt

Pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA) is a possible candidate for the development of a pneumococcal vaccine that has the potential to offer a broad range of protection. PspA genes of pneumococcal meningitis isolates (n=40) isolated as part of an ongoing population-based nation-wide surveillance program on invasive pneumococcal disease in children in Germany were analyzed to expand our knowledge on the...
