Lateral gene transfer of streptococcal ICE element RD2 (region of difference 2) encoding secreted proteins

1 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The genome of serotype M28 group A Streptococcus (GAS) strain MGAS6180 contains a novel genetic element named Region of Difference 2 (RD2) that encodes seven putative secreted extracellular proteins. RD2 is present in all serotype M28 strains and strains of several other GAS serotypes associated with female urogenital infections. We show here that the GAS RD2 element is present in strain MGAS6180 both...
