Production and composition of group B streptococcal membrane vesicles varies across diverse lineages

2021-08-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Although the neonatal and fetal pathogen Group B Streptococcus (GBS) asymptomatically colonizes the vaginal tract of ∼30% of pregnant women, only a fraction of their offspring develops invasive disease. We and others have postulated that these dimorphic clinical phenotypes are driven by strain variability; however, the bacterial factors that promote these divergent clinical phenotypes remain un...
