Identification and genetic engineering of pneumococcal capsule-like polysaccharides in commensal oral streptococci

ABSTRACTCapsular polysaccharides (CPS) in Streptococcus pneumoniae are pivotal for bacterial virulence and present extensive diversity. While oral streptococci show pronounced antigenicity toward pneumococcal capsule-specific sera, insights into evolution of capsule diversity remain limited. This st...
