hicap: <i>in silico</i> serotyping of the <i>Haemophilus influenzae</i> capsule locus

2019-02-08

Abstract excerpt

Haemophilus influenzae exclusively colonises the human nasopharynx and can cause a variety of respiratory infections as well as invasive diseases including meningitis and sepsis. A key virulence determinant of H. influenzae is the polysaccharide capsule of which six serotypes are known, each encoded by a distinct variation of the capsule biosynthesis locus ( cap -a to cap -f). H. influenzae type b (Hib) was hi...
