In addition, GBS is an important commensal microbe in the female genital tract. Researchers have used various murine models to study mechanisms of disease pathogenesis for UTI and microbe colonisation of the genital tract.

The Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a Gram-positive opportunistic pathogen which is a leading cause of neonatal disease globally. In 2000-2001, the general incidence of neonatal GBS infection was 0.72 per 1000 live births in U.K. and the mortality rate is about 10%, because of which neonatal GBS disease is a significant burden on society. GBS is part of the commensal flora, colonising the vagina and gastrointestinal tract of women. Vertical transmission is the main cause of early onset GBS disease.

The oropharynx also represents an important point of entry for GBS in both neonates and adults.

Background: Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the leading cause of neonatal sepsis and meningitis. Currently, the UK recommends against universal antenatal screening to prevent early-onset GBS disease (EOGBS, < 7 days). Key gaps around GBS natural history, harms from screening and a lack of high-quality data to prove screening effectiveness make it difficult to ensure the benefits of GBS screening outweigh the harms. There is also a wider gap on policy-making processes for screening. The overall aim of this thesis is to address these gaps and examine whether the UK should introduce universal GBS

Abstract:
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a Gram-positive bacteria known for causing a wide range of illnesses in neonates, pregnant woman, elderly, and immunocompromised people. Intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis is the current prevention measure for pregnant women used worldwide and has been highly successful thus far. However, it is a dangerous long-term approach with the rising antimicrobial resistance crisis. Vaccine development has been ongoing for several decades and remains a key area of study for GBS researchers worldwide. Finding an effective vaccine target candidate that can be packaged in a s

Abstract:
In Group B Streptococcus (GBS) three structurally distinct types of pili have been discovered as potential virulence factors and vaccine candidates. The pilus-forming proteins are assembled into high-molecular weight polymers via a transpeptidation mechanism mediated by specific class C sortases. Using a multidisciplinary approach including bioinformatics, structural and biochemical studies and in vivo mutagenesis we performed a broad characterization of GBS sortase C. The high resolution X-ray structure of the enzymes revealed that the active site, located into the β-barrel core of the enzym

Abstract:
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a species of gram positive bacteria representing a significant human pathogen; namely, as the most prolific cause of neonatal disease and mortality globally, but also increasingly reported in adult disease (especially among the elderly and those with compromised immune systems). The first chapter of this thesis reviews the extensive literature covering GBS; with a focus on classification and disease. Selected virulence factors are also discussed. In chapter 2, eight strains of GBS were selected for whole genome sequencing by Third Generation, Pacific Biosystems (

Abstract:
Group B Streptococcus [GBS; Streptococcus agalactiae] is the leading cause of life-threatening diseases in newborn and is also becoming a common cause of invasive diseases in non-pregnant, elderly and immune-compromised adults. Pili, long filamentous fibers protruding from the bacterial surface, have been discovered in GBS, as important virulence factors and vaccine candidates. Gram-positive bacteria build pili on their cell surface via a class C sortase-catalyzed transpeptidation mechanism from pilin protein substrates. Despite the availability of several crystal structures, pilus-related C s
