MrvR, a Group B <i>Streptococcus</i> Transcription Factor that Controls Multiple Virulence Traits

2020-11-17

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus agalactiae (group B Streptococcus ; GBS) remains a dominant cause of serious neonatal infections. One aspect of GBS that renders it particularly virulent during the perinatal period is its ability to invade the chorioamniotic membranes and persist in amniotic fluid, which is nutritionally deplete and rich in fetal immunologic factors such as antimicrobial peptides. We used next-generation sequencing...
