Genetic transformation of <i>Gardnerella</i> species and characterization of vaginolysin and sialidase mutants

2025-05-10

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most prevalent vaginal disorder in women of childbearing age and causes pregnancy complications including preterm birth. Species of Gardnerella increase just prior to the onset of symptoms and are considered to play major roles in the development and transmission of BV. However, Gardnerella species have remained genetically intractable, limiting investigations of their virulence m...
