| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Group A streptococcus (GAS) is one of the most widely distributed bacterial pathogens in the world. We examined the emm genotypes of clinical isolates of GAS collected in Thailand during two 5-year periods (1999-2003 and 2007-2011). In total, 339 clinical GAS isolates were obtained: 98 during 1999-2003 and 241 during 2007-2011. The major emm genotypes identified were emm44 (10.9%), emm81 (5.3%), emm104 (5.3%), and emm1-2 (5.0%). The emm44- and emm81-type isolates were consistently predominant in both groups of isolates. The GAS isolates possessed various combinations of superantigen genes, and the three most-frequent superantigen gene profiles (accounted for 32% of isolates) contained no bacteriophage-encoded superantigen genes. Overall, we found that the emm types and superantigen gene distribution of GAS isolates in Thailand have unique patterns that are different from those reported in other countries.
