AUTHOR'S CORRECTION

The Seventh International Conference on the Genetics of Streptococci, Lactococci, and Enterococci

Robert A. Burne, Debra E. Bessen, Jeffery R. Broadbent, and Jean-Pierre Claverys

Department of Oral Biology, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida; Department of Microbiology and Immunology, New York Medical College, Valhalla, New York 10595; Western Dairy Center and Department of Nutrition and Food Sciences, Utah State University, Logan, Utah; and Laboratoire de Microbiologie et Génétique Moléculaires, UMR 5100 CNRS-Université Paul Sabatier, 118 route de Narbonne, 31062 Toulouse Cedex 9, France

Volume 189, no. 4, p. 1209-1218, 2007. Page 1210, column 2, first complete paragraph, the last three sentences should be replaced with the following: "Newly appearing type 19A strains account for most of the increased antibiotic resistance now seen within the serotype. Work performed by Beall's collaborator, Angela Brueggemann, depicted how a new invasive type 19A variant appears to have arisen following horizontal transfer of a 39-kb DNA fragment containing serotype 19A capsule and flanking penicillin-binding protein genes from an ST199 donor strain to a serotype 4 ST695 recipient strain. Serotype 4 capsular polysaccharide corresponds to one of the seven vaccine serotypes successfully targeted by PCV7. This single genetic replacement event appears to account for the rapid emergence of this vaccine escape 19A variant on the ST695 background."
