RocA Is an Accessory Protein to the Virulence-Regulating CovRS Two-Component System in Group A Streptococcus
15 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Regulating gene expression during infection is critical to the ability of pathogens to circumvent the immune response and cause disease. This is true for the group A Streptococcus (GAS), a pathogen that causes both invasive (e.g., necrotizing fasciitis) and noninvasive (e.g., pharyngitis) diseases. The c ontrol o f v irulence (CovRS) two-component system has a major role in regulating GAS virulence...
