Regions of Diversity 8, 9 and 13 contribute to Streptococcus pneumoniae virulence
BACKGROUND: Streptococcus pneumoniae is the leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Previously, using comparative genomic analyses, 13 regions of genomic plasticity have been identified in the S. pneumoniae genome. These "Regions of Diversity" (RDs) accounted for half the genomic va...
