Identification of a divergent M protein gene and an M protein-related gene family in Streptococcus pyogenes serotype 49.
The antigenically variant M protein of Streptococcus pyogenes enhances virulence by promoting resistance to phagocytosis. The serum opacity factor (OF), produced by a subset of M serotypes, is also antigenically variant, and its antigenic variability exactly parallels that of M protein. OF-positive...
