Colonization of the murine oropharynx by <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> is governed by the Rgg2/3 quorum sensing system
2020-06-30
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus pyogenes is a human-restricted pathogen most often found in the human nasopharynx. Multiple bacterial factors are known to contribute to persistent colonization of this niche, and many are important in mucosal immunity and vaccine development. In this work, mice were infected intranasally with transcriptional regulator mutants of the Rgg2/3 quorum sensing (QS) system—a peptide-based signaling system...
