Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae is characterised into 92 serotypes based on antigenic reactions of commercial rabbit sera to the capsular polysaccharides. During development of a bioinformatic serotyping tool (PneumoCaT), an isolate exhibited a novel codon at residue 385 of the glycosyltransferase gene wcwK encoding a distinct amino acid, which differentiates genogroup 7. Investigation by repeat serotyping and Quellung...
