Dynamic pneumococcal genetic adaptations support bacterial growth and inflammation during coinfection with influenza
2019-06-04
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is one of the primary bacterial pathogens that complicates influenza virus infections. These bacterial coinfections increase influenza-associated morbidity and mortality through a number of immunological and viral-mediated mechanisms, but the specific bacterial genes that contribute to post-influenza pathogenicity are not known. Here, we used genome-wide transposon mutagenes...
