A Tn-seq screen of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> uncovers DNA repair as the major pathway for desiccation tolerance and transmission

2020-11-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Streptococcus pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen that is a common cause of serious invasive diseases such as pneumonia, bacteremia, meningitis, and otitis media. Transmission of this bacterium has classically been thought to occur through inhalation of respiratory droplets and direct contact with nasal secretions. However, the demonstration that S. pneumoniae is desiccation tolerant, and t...
