<i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> serotype 33G: genetic, serological, and structural analysis of a new capsule type

2023-09-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus) is a human pathogen responsible for a spectrum of diseases such as pneumonia, sepsis, and meningitis. The capsule is the major pneumococcal virulence factor and is encoded by the capsular polysaccharide ( cps ) locus, a recombination hot spot that has resulted in over 100 distinct capsular polysaccharide types (serotypes) identified to date. Recently,...
