    Author: Sendi P, El Hay MA, Brandt CM, Spellerberg B.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2017 Jan; 23(1):150-152. PubMed ID: 27983484.
    Abstract:
    Gene mutations in the virulence regulator CovR/S of group A Streptococcus play a substantial role in the pathogenesis of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. We screened 25 group B Streptococcus (GBS) isolates obtained from patients with streptococcal toxic shock syndrome and found only 1 GBS clone harboring this kind of mutation.
