Mosaicism in the alpha-like protein genes of group B streptococci

Members of a family of repeat-containing surface proteins of group B streptococci (GBS) defined by the alpha C and Rib proteins exhibit size variability and cross-reactivity and have been studied as potential vaccine components. We report evidence of horizontal DNA transfer with subsequent recombina...
