Abstract:
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus, GAS) is a major human Gram-positive pathogen that causes infections that normally occur in the respiratory tract, the skin, the wound, the lung, the bloodstream and/or muscle tissues and result in millions of deaths every year. To cause such infections, S. pyogenes produces a wide range of virulence factors. The destruction of connective tissue and the hyaluronic acid therein plays an important role in pathogenesis. S. pyogenes was propagated in hyaluronic acid rich growth media in an attempt to create a simple biological system that could reflect

Abstract:
The bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes produces a multitude of proteins which interact with and alter the functions of the host immune system. Two such proteins, Endoglycosidase S (EndoS) and Immunoglobulin G-degrading enzyme from S. pyogenes (IdeS) are able to specifically alter the effector functions of immunoglobulin G (IgG). EndoS is a glycoside hydrolase which removes the conserved <i>N</i>-linked glycan from IgG Fc whereas IdeS is a cysteine protease that cleaves the exible protein hinge of IgG. The activity of both proteins results in the reduced ability of IgG to elicit immune responses t

Streptococcus pyogenes (also known as Group A Streptococcus, GAS) is a capsulated Gram-positive, human-adapted pathogen.

Regulation was shown to occur independent of the CovRS two-component regulator in a post transcription manner and before protein level regulation. The endoribonuclease, CvfA, was also confirmed to be required for capsule thermoregulation.

Abstract:
O Streptococcus pyogenes (Grupo A de Lancefield) é uma bactéria Gram positiva e beta-hemolítica, responsável por infecções, tais como Faringite, Sepse, Fasciíte Necrotizante e Síndrome do Choque Tóxico Estreptocócico. Indivíduos suscetíveis podem desenvolver sequela não supurativa auto-imune pós-estreptocócica, como a Febre Reumática, Doença Reumática Cardíaca e a Glomerulonefrite Aguda. A proteína M é o principal antígeno bacteriano. Consiste em aproximadamente 450 resíduos de aminoácidos dispostos em quatro regiões (A, B, C e D), contendo alguns blocos de repetições. As regiões C e D são con

Abstract:
Os estreptococos B-hemoliticos do grupo A (Streptococcus pyogenes) causam varias doencas humanas e estao associados com febre reumatica e glomerulonefrite pos-estreptococica. A sorotipagem dos antigenos M e T tem sido a maneira mais comum de tipagem destes patogenos, entretanto, para alguns isolados a tipagem por este metodo nao e satisfatoria, pois cerca de 15 a 40% dos isolados nao sao tipaveis. Alem disso, estes metodos de sorotipagem nao sao eficientes para diferenciacao clonal em estudos epidemiologicos. Marcadores moleculares sao ferramentas importantes capazes de diferenciar sorotipos d
