Pneumococcal 23B Molecular Subtype Identified Using Whole Genome Sequencing
The polysaccharide capsule is a major virulence factor of Streptococcus pneumoniae and the target of all currently licensed pneumococcal vaccines. At present, there are 92 serologically distinct pneumococcal serotypes. Structural and antigenic variation of capsular types is the result of genetic var...
