Characterization of DNase activity and gene in Streptococcus suis and evidence for a role as virulence factor

BACKGROUND: The Gram-positive bacterium Streptococcus suis serotype 2 is an important swine pathogen and emerging zoonotic agent. Multilocus sequence typing allowed dividing S. suis serotype 2 into sequence types (STs). The three major STs of S. suis serotype 2 from North America are 1 (most virulen...
