  • Title: Use of selective capture of transcribed sequences to identify genes preferentially expressed by Streptococcus suis upon interaction with porcine brain microvascular endothelial cells.
    Author: Fittipaldi N, Gottschalk M, Vanier G, Daigle F, Harel J.
    Journal: Appl Environ Microbiol; 2007 Jul; 73(13):4359-64. PubMed ID: 17483264.
    Abstract:
    By using the selective capture of transcribed sequences (SCOTS) approach, we identified 28 genes preferentially expressed by the major swine pathogen and zoonotic agent Streptococcus suis upon interaction with porcine brain microvascular endothelial cells. Several of these genes may be considered new S. suis candidate virulence factors. Results from this study demonstrate the suitability of SCOTS for the elucidation of gene expression in streptococcal species and may contribute to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of S. suis infections.
