A novel conserved protein in <i>Streptococcus agalactiae</i> , BvaP, is important for vaginal colonization and biofilm formation

2022-03-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Strep, GBS) infections in neonates are often fatal and strongly associated with maternal GBS vaginal colonization. Here, we investigated the role of a previously uncharacterized protein, BvaP, in GBS vaginal colonization. BvaP was previously identified as the most highly upregulated gene in the GBS A909 transcriptome when comparing vaginal colonization to growth...
