Flores A, Chhatwal G, Hillier S, Baker C, Ferrieri P
Curr Microbiol . 2014 Aug; 69(6):894-8. PMID: 25108378
Group B protective surface protein (BPS) is expressed on the cell surface of some group B streptococcal (GBS) (Streptococcus agalactiae) strains and adds to the identification by capsular polysaccharide (CPS),...

Fulde M, Bernardo-Garcia N, Rohde M, Nachtigall N, Frank R, Preissner K, et al.
Thromb Haemost . 2013 Nov; 111(3):401-16. PMID: 24196407
Streptococcus pneumoniae is not only a commensal of the nasopharyngeal epithelium, but may also cause life-threatening diseases. Immune-electron microscopy studies revealed that the bacterial glycolytic enzyme, phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), is...

Hitzmann A, Bergmann S, Rohde M, Chhatwal G, Fulde M
Vet Microbiol . 2012 Sep; 162(1):270-7. PMID: 22939986
Although Streptococcus (S.) canis is known to cause severe infections in dogs and cats and harbors a clear zoonotic potential, knowledge about physiology and pathogenesis is mostly elusive. The arginine...

Henningham A, Chiarot E, Gillen C, Cole J, Rohde M, Fulde M, et al.
J Mol Med (Berl) . 2012 Apr; 90(10):1197-207. PMID: 22527883
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A Streptococcus (GAS)) causes ∼700 million human infections each year, resulting in over 500,000 deaths. The development of a commercial GAS vaccine is hampered by the occurrence...

Sanderson-Smith M, Dinkla K, Cole J, Cork A, Maamary P, McArthur J, et al.
FASEB J . 2008 May; 22(8):2715-22. PMID: 18467595
The human protease plasmin plays a crucial role in the capacity of the group A streptococcus (GAS; Streptococcus pyogenes) to initiate invasive disease. The GAS strain NS88.2 was isolated from...

Gillen C, Courtney H, Schulze K, Rohde M, Wilson M, Timmer A, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2008 Jan; 283(10):6359-66. PMID: 18180300
Serum opacity factor (SOF) is a unique multifunctional virulence determinant expressed at the surface of Streptococcus pyogenes and has been shown to elicit protective immunity against GAS infection in a...

Friedrichs C, Rodloff A, Chhatwal G, Schellenberger W, Eschrich K
J Clin Microbiol . 2007 Jun; 45(8):2392-7. PMID: 17553974
Viridans streptococci (VS) are responsible for several systemic diseases, such as endocarditis, abscesses, and septicemia. Unfortunately, species identification by conventional methods seems to be more difficult than species identification of...

McMillan D, Beiko R, Geffers R, Buer J, Schouls L, Vlaminckx B, et al.
Clin Infect Dis . 2006 Aug; 43(7):884-91. PMID: 16941370
Background: The factors behind the reemergence of severe, invasive group A streptococcal (GAS) diseases are unclear, but it could be caused by altered genetic endowment in these organisms. However, data...

Cole J, McArthur J, McKay F, Sanderson-Smith M, Cork A, Ranson M, et al.
FASEB J . 2006 Jun; 20(10):1745-7. PMID: 16790522
The globally disseminated Streptococcus pyogenes M1T1 clone causes a number of highly invasive human diseases. The transition from local to systemic infection occurs by an unknown mechanism; however invasive M1T1...

Infect Immun . 2004 Nov; 72(12):7342-5. PMID: 15557665
Fibronectin binding protein F1 (Sfb1) of Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus [GAS]) is a well-characterized adhesin that has been shown to induce protection in mice against a lethal intranasal GAS...
