The NH(2)-terminal region of S. pyogenes M5 protein confers protection against degradation by proteases and enhances mucosal colonization of mice

BACKGROUND: The NH(2)-terminal sequence of the M protein from group A streptococci (GAS) defines the serotype of the organism and contains epitopes that evoke bactericidal antibodies. METHODS: To identify additional roles for this region of the M protein, we constructed a mutant of M5 GAS expressing...
