Distribution of virulence genes and the molecular epidemiology of Streptococcus pyogenes clinical isolates by emm and multilocus sequence typing methods
Background: Streptococcus pyogenes has a variety of virulence factors and the predominant invasive strains differ according to specific emm types and geographical orientation. Although emm typing is commonly used as the gold standard method for the molecular characterisation, multilocus sequence typ...
