A conserved 3D pattern in a Streptococcus pyogenes M protein immunogen elicits M-type crossreactivity

Coiled coil–forming M proteins of the widespread and potentially deadly bacterial pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes (strep A) are immunodominant targets of opsonizing antibodies. However, antigenic sequence variability of M proteins into >220 M types, as defined by their hypervariable regions (HVRs...
