Complete Genome Sequence of Streptococcus agalactiae Serotype III, Multilocus Sequence Type 335 Strain HU-GS5823, Isolated from a Human Patient in Japan with Severe Invasive Infection.

ABSTRACT: Streptococcus agalactiae is an important causal pathogen of neonatal and obstetric sepsis, and it may be involved in invasive infection in immunocompromised and elderly individuals. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Streptococcus agalactiae serotype III strain HU-GS5823, which was isolated from a patient in Japan with an invasive infection.

Serotype III Streptococcus agalactiae from bovine milk and human neonatal infections.

Project description:Streptococcus agalactiae (group B streptococcus [GBS]) causes invasive human infections and bovine mastitis. This study examined the genetic relationship between bovine and human serotype III GBS by using molecular techniques that classify human serotype III GBS into four distinct phylogenetic lineages. Bovine serotype III GBS were largely contained in two lineages, which are distinct from the two major lineages (restriction digest types III-2 and III-3) that infect human neonates. One of the bovine lineages closely resembles the human III-1 lineage, whose members occasionally cause human neonatal infections. The bovine strains in the other lineage characteristically have an initiation factor IF2 gene (infB) H allele and multilocus sequence types that are not found in human GBS strains. Evidence suggests that this "H allele" lineage is related to the human III-3 lineage. These results support the assertion that human and bovine GBS are largely unrelated and provide further insight into the genetic relation between human and bovine GBS.

Genomic characterization of emerging invasive Streptococcus agalactiae serotype VIII in Alberta, Canada.

Project description:Invasive Group B Streptococcus (GBS) can infect pregnant women, neonates, and older adults. Invasive GBS serotype VIII is infrequent in Alberta; however, cases have increased in recent years. Here, genomic analysis was used to characterize fourteen adult invasive serotype VIII isolates from 2009 to 2021. Trends in descriptive clinical data and antimicrobial susceptibility results were evaluated for invasive serotype VIII isolates from Alberta. Isolate genomes were sequenced and subjected to molecular sequence typing, virulence and antimicrobial resistance gene identification, phylogenetic analysis, and pangenome determination. Multilocus sequencing typing identified eight ST42 (Clonal Complex; CC19), four ST1 (CC1), and two ST2 (CC1) profiles. Isolates were susceptible to penicillin, erythromycin, chloramphenicol, and clindamycin, apart from one isolate that displayed erythromycin and inducible clindamycin resistance. All isolates carried genes for peptide antibiotic resistance, three isolates for tetracycline resistance, and one for macrolide, lincosamide, and streptogramin resistance. All genomes carried targets currently being considered for protein-based vaccines (e.g., pili and/or Alpha family proteins). Overall, invasive GBS serotype VIII is emerging in Alberta, primarily due to ST42. Characterization and continued surveillance of serotype VIII will be important for outbreak prevention, informing vaccine development, and contributing to our understanding of the global epidemiology of this rare serotype.

Invasive Streptococcus oralis Expressing Serotype 3 Pneumococcal Capsule, Japan.

Project description:We report 2 adult cases of invasive disease in Japan caused by Streptococcus oralis that expressed the serotype 3 pneumococcal capsule and formed mucoid colonies. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that the identical serotype 3 pneumococcal capsule locus and hyl fragment were recombined into the genomes of 2 distinct S. oralis strains.

Serotype IX, a Proposed New Streptococcus agalactiae Serotype.

Project description:We identified three isolates of Streptococcus agalactiae (group B streptococcus [GBS]), of human origin, which failed to react with antisera against any of the nine known GBS serotypes. Polyclonal rabbit antisera raised against these isolates and standard GBS typing sera were used in capillary precipitation and Ouchterlony tests to compare the strains with known GBS serotype reference strains. All three previously nontypeable isolates reacted with all three new antisera, producing lines of identity in the Ouchterlony test. Weak cross-reactions with antisera against several GBS serotypes were observed but were removed by absorption with corresponding antigens. The new antisera were used to test 227 GBS isolates that had been nontypeable or difficult to type using standard antisera. Of these, five reacted with the new antisera. These results suggested that all eight isolates belong to the previously unrecognized GBS serotype. They were tested by Western blotting for the Calpha and Cbeta proteins and by PCR to identify molecular serotypes and surface protein antigen genes. Two segments of the cps gene cluster (3' end of cpsE-cpsF and 5' end of cpsG, approximately 700 bp; 3' end of cpsH and 5' end of cpsM, approximately 560 bp) were sequenced. All eight isolates expressed Calpha, and seven expressing the Cbeta protein and the corresponding genes, bca and bac, respectively, were identified. They all share the same, unique partial cps sequence. These results indicate that these eight isolates represent a new S. agalactiae serotype, which we propose should be designated serotype IX.

Comparison of a 3-set genotyping system with multilocus sequence typing for Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus).

Project description:Group B streptococcus (GBS; Streptococcus agalactiae) is the most common cause of neonatal and obstetric sepsis and is an increasingly important cause of septicemia in elderly individuals and immunocompromised patients. Epidemiological studies of GBS infections require comprehensive typing systems that provide information about variable characteristics, such as antigenic type, virulence, or antibiotic resistance, as well as the "backbone" structure or the genetic lineage of isolates. We have previously described a 3-set genotyping system that identifies the molecular serotype (MS) or molecular serosubtype (msst), the protein gene profile, and the presence of several mobile genetic elements (F. Kong, D. Martin, G. James, and G. L. Gilbert, J. Med. Microbiol. 52:337-344, 2003). In this study, 83 clinical GBS isolates which had been previously studied by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) (N. Jones, J. F. Bohnsack, S. Takahashi, K. A. Oliver, M. S. Chan, F. Kunst, P. Glaser, C. Rusniok, D. W. Crook, R. M. Harding, N. Bisharat, and B. G. Spratt, J. Clin. Microbiol. 41:2530-2536, 2003) were examined by using the 3-set genotyping system. Genotypes were assigned to five isolates that were nontypeable by conventional serotyping. There were 27 "3-set" genotypes, 24 multilocus sequence types (STs), and 35 unique combinations (or strains), of which the 4 most common, msst III-2 (ST-17), msst III-1 (ST-19), Ia-1 (ST-23), and V-1 (ST-1), accounted for more than 60% of isolates. The 83 isolates were grouped into seven clusters, with a good correlation between the multilocus STs and the genotypes. The combination of 3-set genotyping and MLST adds discriminatory power to strain typing of GBS, which will be useful for future studies of the epidemiology and pathogenesis of GBS disease.
