Global gene expression analysis of Streptococcus agalactiae at exponential grow...
Silvestre, Inês; Borges, Vítor; Duarte, Sílvia; Nunes, Alexandra; Sobral, Rita; Vieira, Luís; Gomes, João Paulo; Borrego, Maria JoséA comparative overview of the global gene expression levels of S. agalactiae reference strain NEM316 at the exponential growth phase was done through RNA-sequencing. The expression levels of 47 genes potentially linked to virulence evidenced that: i) the major nuclease, GBS_RS03720/gbs0661, presented higher mean expression values than the remainder of DNase genes; ii) the genetic pilus island PI-2a genes presen...
