Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococci, GAS) is a human pathogen which probably
varies its multiplication rate and thus, growth phases in association with the type of infection
caused in its host. To create a basis for future determinations of such associations, the
genome-wide growth phase-related GAS transcriptome was assessed in the present study.
Therefore, the published serotype M1 S. pyogenes genome sequence as well as the
partially sequenced serotype M18 and M49 GAS genomes were used to produce DNA …
