A Single Gene (tts) Located outside the cap Locus Directs the Formation of Streptococcus pneumoniae Type 37 Capsular Polysaccharide: Type 37 Pneumococci Are Natural, Genetically Binary Strains
The molecular aspects of the type 37 pneumococcal capsular biosynthesis, a homopolysaccharide composed of sophorosyl units (β-d-Glc-(1→2)-β-d-Glc) linked by β-1,3 bonds, have been studied. Remarkably, the biosynthesis of the type 37 capsule is driven by a single gene (tts) located far apart from the...
