Novel Role for the <named-content content-type="genus-species">Streptococcus pneumoniae</named-content> Toxin Pneumolysin in the Assembly of Biofilms
ABSTRACT Streptococcus pneumoniae is an important commensal and pathogen responsible for almost a million deaths annually in children under five. The formation of biofilms by S. pneumoniae is important in nasopharyngeal colonization, pneumonia, and otitis media. Pneumolysin (Ply) is a toxin that con...
