Integrative Reverse Genetic Analysis Identifies Polymorphisms Contributing to Decreased Antimicrobial Agent Susceptibility in Streptococcus pyogenes

Stephen B. Beres et al.

Summary: By analyzing the genome sequences of Streptococcus pyogenes, a human pathogen causing millions of infections annually, researchers have identified potential genetic changes that may be responsible for decreased susceptibility to β-lactam antibiotics. Further experiments confirmed that these genetic changes indeed reduce susceptibility to penicillin. The study also discovered a novel chimeric protein in S. pyogenes that leads to significantly decreased susceptibility to β-lactam antibiotics. This reverse genotype-to-phenotype strategy can be applied to other pathogens and may contribute to addressing the global public health problem of antimicrobial resistance.

A Chimeric Penicillin Binding Protein 2X Significantly Decreases in Vitro Beta-Lactam Susceptibility and Increases in Vivo Fitness of Streptococcus pyogenes

Randall J. Olsen et al.

Summary: The study identified amino acid substitutions in penicillin-binding proteins of some strains of Streptococcus pyogenes, resulting in decreased susceptibility to beta-lactam antibiotics. Additionally, a chimeric penicillin-binding protein 2X was found to significantly reduce susceptibility to beta-lactam antibiotics and increase fitness and virulence.

Natural mutation in the regulatory gene (srrG) influences virulence-associated genes and enhances invasiveness in Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis strains isolated from cases of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome

Tadayoshi Ikebe et al.

Summary: This study identified csrS/csrR and srrG gene mutations that are associated with increased virulence gene expression in STSS-SDSE isolates. Strains carrying these mutations exhibited enhanced pathogenicity in mice. The higher frequency of mutations observed in STSS-SDSE isolates highlights their importance in STSS.

Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis from invasive and non-invasive infections in Spain: combining epidemiology, molecular characterization, and genetic diversity

Beatriz Rojo-Bezares et al.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize the antibiotic resistance, virulence, and genetic diversity among invasive and non-invasive Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis (SDSE) isolates. The researchers found a high diversity of circulating genetic lineages among SDSE isolates, and identified various resistance and virulence genes associated with different emm types. Invasive infections of SDSE were most frequent in elderly patients, and half of the isolates were resistant to at least one antibiotic tested.

Comparative genome analysis of three Group A Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis strains isolated in Japan

Haruka Ishihara et al.

Summary: This study identified the complete genomic sequences of Lancefield group A SDSE strains, revealing a group-specific conserved region that can be targeted for differentiation through PCR. The growth of GA-SDSE was suppressed in the presence of other SDSE and S. pyogenes, potentially explaining the low frequency of isolation of GA-SDSE strains.

Whole genome sequencing reveals possible host species adaptation of Streptococcusdysgalactiae

Davide Porcellato et al.

Summary: Research on Streptococcus dysgalactiae (SD) reveals that it is an emerging pathogen in both human and veterinary medicine, with diverse host species, disease phenotypes, and virulence mechanisms. Analysis of SDSD and SDSE genomes from various host species suggests a complex phylogenetic relationship within SD, with distinct differences between SDSD and SDSE, indicating potential for adaptation to multiple hosts.
