Niche-specific contribution of the branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis protein IlvD in <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> infection

2026-06-03

Abstract excerpt

Systemic pneumococcal infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Pneumococci isolated from bacteraemia lack clear genetic signatures distinguishing them from isolates recovered from other disease sites. The bloodstream is an evolutionary dead end, providing no means of onward transmission, and acute bacteraemic events offer limited opportunity for within-host evolution. Nonetheless, we reasoned that...
