Comparative genomics of <i>Streptococcus oralis</i> identifies large scale homologous recombination and a genetic variant associated with infection

2022-08-05

Abstract excerpt

The viridans group streptococci (VGS) are a large consortium of commensal streptococci that colonize the human body. Many species within this group are opportunistic pathogens causing bacteremia and infective endocarditis (IE), yet little is known about why some strains cause invasive disease. Identification of virulence determinants is complicated by the difficulty of distinguishing between the closely related sp...
