Streptococcus pneumoniae Capsular Serotype 19F Is More Resistant to C3 Deposition and Less Sensitive to Opsonophagocytosis than Serotype 6B
The polysaccharide capsule is a major virulence mechanism of Streptococcus pneumoniae, shielding the bacterium from phagocytes. Capsule types may differ in their abilities to resist immune defense. Antibody-mediated complement activation and opsonophagocytosis are crucial in protection against pneum...
