Pan-genome study underlining the extent of genomic variation of invasive <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> in Malawi

2023-01-03

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a common cause of acute bacterial infections in Malawi. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying its invasive behavior is crucial for designing new therapeutic strategies. We conducted a pan-genome analysis to identify potential virulence genes in S. pneumoniae by comparing the gene pool of isolates from carriers’ nasopharyngeal secretions to isolates from the blood and cerebr...
