Reevaluating the serotype II capsular locus of Streptococcus agalactiae.
Martins E.R., Melo-Cristino J., Ramirez M.
We report a novel sequence of the serotype II capsular locus of group B streptococcus that resolves inconsistencies among the results of various groups and the sequence in GenBank. This locus was found in diverse lineages and presents genes consistent with the complete synthesis of the type II polysaccharide.
