Streptokinase gene polymorphism in group A streptococci isolated from Ethiopian children with various disease manifestations.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Oct 1993

Tewodros W, Nordstrand A, Kronvall G, Holm S E, Norgren M

Abstract excerpt

Certain variants of streptokinase from group A streptococci have been associated with acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (APSGN). The streptokinase gene (ska) has previously been grouped into nine different polymorphic genotypes of which ska1, ska2, ska6, and ska9 were identified in group A streptococci associated with clinical and experimental APSGN. A total of 53 group A streptococci isolated from...
