摘要:
The present disclosure is based upon the identification of a number of Streptococcus agalactiae genes which are required for virulence in fish species. Specifically, the disclosure relates to genomic content present in fish-associated S. agalactiae strains that is absent from strains which are non-virulent to fish. Further disclosed is the use of a number of S. agalactiae proteins and antigens in methods, immunogenic compositions and vaccines for raising immune responses and treating or preventing diseases, conditions and/or infections with a Streptococcal aetiology.
