SMC is recruited to oriC by ParB and promotes chromosome segregation in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]
Segregation of replicated chromosomes is an essential process in all organisms. How bacteria, such as the oval-shaped human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae, efficiently segregate their chromosomes is poorly understood.

IMMUNOGENICITY OF THE EXPERIMENTAL ASSOCIATED VACCINE AGAINST MASTITIS IN COWS
Currently, mastitis of infectious etiology remains a significant problem for dairy farming, which are widespread and cause enormous economic damage. The frequency of occurrence of mastitis by months during the year varies from 1.9 to 7.7 %.

SpxA1 and SpxA2 act coordinately to fine-tune stress responses and virulence in Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]
SpxA is a unique transcriptional regulator highly conserved among members of the phylum Firmicutes that binds RNA polymerase and can act as an antiactivator. Why some Firmicutes members have two highly similar SpxA paralogs is not understood.

Phenotypic differentiation of Streptococcus intermedius, Streptococcus constellatus, and Streptococcus anginosus strains within the "Streptococcus milleri group" [PDF]
A biochemical scheme was developed by which strains of Streptococcus constellatus, Streptococcus intermedius, and Streptococcus anginosus can reliably be distinguished from within the "Streptococcus milleri group." Strains identified as S. intermedius were differentiated by the ability to produce detectable levels of alpha-glucosidase, beta ...
