Investigation into thermal adaptation mechanisms of Streptococcus pneumoniae and its impact on pneumococcal pathogenicity
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Temperature is a critical and ubiquitous environmental signal that influences the growth, virulence, and survival of diverse microbial species. The human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae is a commensal microorganism, whose ecological niche is the human nasopharynx, and becomes pathogenic after spreading to other niches such as lung, blood stream, or brain.
