<i>Streptococcus suis</i> encodes multiple allelic variants of a phase-variable Type III DNA methyltransferase, ModS, that control distinct phasevarions

2021-01-27

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus suis is a significant cause of bacterial meningitis in humans, particularly in S.E. Asia, and is a leading cause of respiratory and invasive disease in pigs. Phase-variable DNA methyltransferases, associated with Restriction-Modification (R-M) systems, are a source of epigenetic gene regulation, controlling the expression of multiple genes. These systems are known as phasevarions (phase-variable regu...
