Complete genome of acute rheumatic fever-associated serotype M5 Streptococcus pyogenes strain manfredo.

ABSTRACT: Comparisons of the 1.84-Mb genome of serotype M5 Streptococcus pyogenes strain Manfredo with previously sequenced genomes emphasized the role of prophages in diversification of S. pyogenes and the close relationship between strain Manfredo and MGAS8232, another acute rheumatic fever-associated strain.

M-Protein Analysis of Streptococcus pyogenes Isolates Associated with Acute Rheumatic Fever in New Zealand.

Project description:We applied an emm cluster typing system to group A Streptococcus strains in New Zealand, including those associated with acute rheumatic fever (ARF). We observed few so-called rheumatogenic emm types but found a high proportion of emm types previously associated with pyoderma, further suggesting a role for skin infection in ARF.

Complete genome sequence of an M1 strain of Streptococcus pyogenes.

Project description:The 1,852,442-bp sequence of an M1 strain of Streptococcus pyogenes, a Gram-positive pathogen, has been determined and contains 1,752 predicted protein-encoding genes. Approximately one-third of these genes have no identifiable function, with the remainder falling into previously characterized categories of known microbial function. Consistent with the observation that S. pyogenes is responsible for a wider variety of human disease than any other bacterial species, more than 40 putative virulence-associated genes have been identified. Additional genes have been identified that encode proteins likely associated with microbial "molecular mimicry" of host characteristics and involved in rheumatic fever or acute glomerulonephritis. The complete or partial sequence of four different bacteriophage genomes is also present, with each containing genes for one or more previously undiscovered superantigen-like proteins. These prophage-associated genes encode at least six potential virulence factors, emphasizing the importance of bacteriophages in horizontal gene transfer and a possible mechanism for generating new strains with increased pathogenic potential.

Genome sequence and comparative microarray analysis of serotype M18 group A Streptococcus strains associated with acute rheumatic fever outbreaks.

Project description:Acute rheumatic fever (ARF), a sequelae of group A Streptococcus (GAS) infection, is the most common cause of preventable childhood heart disease worldwide. The molecular basis of ARF and the subsequent rheumatic heart disease are poorly understood. Serotype M18 GAS strains have been associated for decades with ARF outbreaks in the U.S. As a first step toward gaining new insight into ARF pathogenesis, we sequenced the genome of strain MGAS8232, a serotype M18 organism isolated from a patient with ARF. The genome is a circular chromosome of 1,895,017 bp, and it shares 1.7 Mb of closely related genetic material with strain SF370 (a sequenced serotype M1 strain). Strain MGAS8232 has 178 ORFs absent in SF370. Phages, phage-like elements, and insertion sequences are the major sources of variation between the genomes. The genomes of strain MGAS8232 and SF370 encode many of the same proven or putative virulence factors. Importantly, strain MGAS8232 has genes encoding many additional secreted proteins involved in human-GAS interactions, including streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A (scarlet fever toxin) and two uncharacterized pyrogenic exotoxin homologues, all phage-associated. DNA microarray analysis of 36 serotype M18 strains from diverse localities showed that most regions of variation were phages or phage-like elements. Two epidemics of ARF occurring 12 years apart in Salt Lake City, UT, were caused by serotype M18 strains that were genetically identical, or nearly so. Our analysis provides a critical foundation for accelerated research into ARF pathogenesis and a molecular framework to study the plasticity of GAS genomes.

An acute rheumatic fever immune signature comprising inflammatory markers, IgG3, and <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i>-specific antibodies.

Project description:Understanding the immune profile of acute rheumatic fever (ARF), a serious post-infectious sequelae of Streptococcal pyogenes (group A Streptococcus [GAS]), could inform disease pathogenesis and management. Circulating cytokines, immunoglobulins, and complement were analyzed in participants with first-episode ARF, swab-positive GAS pharyngitis and matched healthy controls. A striking elevation of total IgG3 was observed in ARF (90% > clinical reference range for normal). ARF was also associated with an inflammatory triad with significant correlations between interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, and complement C4 absent in controls. Quantification of GAS-specific antibody responses revealed that subclass polarization was remarkably consistent across the disease spectrum; conserved protein antigens polarized to IgG1, while M-protein responses polarized to IgG3 in all groups. However, the magnitude of responses was significantly higher in ARF. Taken together, these findings emphasize the association of exaggerated GAS antibody responses, IgG3, and inflammatory cytokines in ARF and suggest IgG3 testing could beneficially augment clinical diagnosis.
