Characterization of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> phage-like element SpnCI reveals an enhanced virulent phenotype in the acute invertebrate infection model <i>Galleria mellonella</i>

2019-06-13

Abstract excerpt

Phage-like elements are found in a multitude of streptococcal species, including pneumococcal strain Hungary19A-6 (SpnCI). The aim of our research was to investigate the role of phage-like element SpnCI in enhanced virulence and phenotypic modulation within Streptococcus pneumoniae . SpnCI was found to significantly enhance virulence within the invertebrate infection model Galleria mellonella . Infections with S...
