| Research Abstract |
Infective endocarditis is characterized by formation of septic masses of platelets on the surfaces of heart valves and it most commonly caused by oral viridans streptococci. Although many factors may contribute to pathogenicity, onset of infective endocarditis still need to be further investigated. In this study, we attempt to determine whole genome sequence of Streptococcus oralis 308 isolated from infective endocarditis patient, and compare with invirulence strain of S. oralis to find the novel pathogenic genes. In present, we have generally finished determining the genome sequence, and intend genomic analysis.
