Emergent emm4 group A Streptococcus evidences a survival strategy during interaction with immune effector cells

C. M. Odo, L. A. Vega, P. Mukherjee, S. Debroy, A. R. Flores, S. A. Shelburne

This study identifies a survival strategy in emm4 group A Streptococcus strains through downregulation of SLO and upregulation of msrAB, enabling better macrophage survival without increased virulence.

LiaR-dependent gene expression contributes to antimicrobial responses in group A Streptococcus

L. A. Vega, M. A. Sanson, P. Mukherjee, G. A. Morrison, K. D. Buchan, A. E. Hohlt, A. R. Flores

This study identifies the LiaFSR regulon in Group A Streptococcus and shows how phosphorylated LiaR regulates virulence and AMP resistance via SpxA2 and other genes.
