A new pneumococcal serotype, 11E, has a variably inactivated wcjE gene.

The Journal of infectious diseases - 1 Jul 2010

Calix Juan J, Nahm Moon H

Abstract excerpt

Recently, 2 serologically and biochemically distinct subtypes-11Aalpha and 11Abeta-were discovered among serotype 11A isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae. Sequence comparison of the capsular polysaccharide synthesis (cps) loci of the 2 subtypes identified disruption of the wcjE gene, a putative...
