Pneumococcus with the "6E" cps Locus Produces Serotype 6B Capsular Polysaccharide.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Apr 2016

Abstract excerpt

Genetic studies of serogroup 6 isolates ofStreptococcus pneumoniaeidentified putative serotype 6E. Although its capsular polysaccharide structure has not been elucidated, putative serotype 6E is described in an increasing number of studies as a potentially new serotype. We show here that SPEC6B, which is widely used as a target strain for serotype 6B opsonophagocytosis assays, has the genetic features of the...
