CRISPR interference in a <i>Streptococcus agalactiae</i> Multi-locus Sequence Type 17 Strain
2025-08-27
Abstract excerpt
Group B Streptococcus (GBS), a common colonizer of the human genital and gastrointestinal tracts, is a leading cause of neonatal bacterial meningitis, which can lead to severe neurological complications. The hypervirulent serotype III, sequence type 17 (ST-17) strain COH1 is strongly associated with late-onset disease due to its unique set of virulence factors. However, genetic manipulation of ST-17 strains is not...
