Copper intoxication in group B Streptococcus triggers a mis-metallation signature and activation of the cop operon leading to enhanced virulence

M. J. Sullivan, K. G. Goh, D. Gosling, L. Katupitiya, G. C. Ulett

This study shows that the cop operon in group B Streptococcus helps resist copper intoxication, enhances virulence, and supports survival in stressful environments.
