Characterization of the NAD-glycohydrolase in streptococcal strains

29 Nov 2007

Abstract excerpt

The NADase (Nga) of group A streptococci (GAS) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases such as streptococcal toxic shock-like syndrome (STSS) and necrotizing fasciitis. In this study we found that the proportion of NADase-positive strains among clinical isolates in Japan has increased over time. The GAS strains studied could be divided into three groups: strains lacking NADase activity, strains with...
