Abstract excerpt

Serotype M28 isolates of the group A Streptococcus (GAS; Streptococcus pyogenes) are nonrandomly associated with cases of puerperal sepsis, a potentially life-threatening infection that can occur in women following childbirth. Previously, we discovered that the 36.3-kb RD2 pathogenicity island, which is present in serotype M28 isolates but lacking from most other isolates, promotes the ability of M28 GAS to...
