Virulence potential and genome-wide characterization of drug resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae clones selected in vivo by the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.
We used mouse models of pneumococcal colonization and disease combined with full genome sequencing to characterize three major drug resistant clones of S. pneumoniae that were recovered from the nasopharynx of PCV7-immunized children in Portugal. The three clones--serotype 6A (ST2191), serotype 15A...
