Emergence of Amoxicillin-Resistant Variants of Spain(9V)-ST156 Pneumococci Expressing Serotype 11A Correlates with Their Ability to Evade the Host Immune Response

Capsular switching allows pre-existing clones of Streptococcus pneumoniae expressing vaccine serotypes to escape the vaccine-induced immunity by acquisition of capsular genes from pneumococci of a non-vaccine serotype. Here, we have analysed the clonal composition of 492 clinical isolates of serotyp...
