Investigation of virulence gene regulation in Streptococcus pneumoniae

2004-01-01

Abstract excerpt

<i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> is an important human pathogen in all age groups worldwide that causes a variety of diseases, ranging from life threatening septicaemia and meningitis to less severe sinusitis and otitis media. The factors that determine the virulence of <i>S. pneumoniae</i> are very complex but a key aspect of the organism's disease causing potential is the ability of the bacteria to regulate virul...
