Molecular analysis of Lancefield group C/G streptococci causing human infections in Sheffield, UK

2026-01-30

Abstract excerpt

Lancefield group C/G streptococci (GCS/GGS) are increasingly recognised as significant human pathogens that cause a disease spectrum similar to Streptococcus pyogenes . Despite their high clinical burden in the UK, their genomic diversity remains poorly understood. We performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) on a prospective collection of 109 consecutive GCS/GGS isolates from all infection types in Sheffield, UK,...
