Deletion of the L-Lactate Dehydrogenase Gene ldh in Streptococcus pyogenes Leads to a Loss of SpeB Activity and a Hypovirulent Phenotype

Streptococcus pyogenes uses lactic acid fermentation for the generation of ATP. Here, we analyzed the impact of a deletion of the L-lactate dehydrogenase gene ldh on the virulence of S. pyogenes M49. While the ldh deletion does not cause a general growth deficiency in laboratory media, the growth in...
