The <i>Streptococcus agalactiae</i> LytSR two-component regulatory system promotes vaginal colonisation and virulence <i>in vivo</i>
2024-08-02
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus agalactiae (or Group B Streptococcus , GBS) is a leading cause of neonatal sepsis and meningitis globally. To sense and respond to variations in its environment, GBS possesses multiple two-component regulatory systems (TCSs) such as LytSR. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of LytSR in GBS pathogenicity. We generated an isogenic lytS knockout mutant in a clinical GBS isolate and used a combinat...
