emm1.0. (emm cluster A-C3) usually T1, opacity factor negative. Also, rarely, T3, opacity factor negative. emm1 is the most frequent emm type that we encounter from invasive and noninvasive infections in the U.S. Note that emm1 is related to emm1-2, emm1-4, and st1969 (related but distinct emm types). CDC reference strain= SS745 (T1, OF-)= RCL T1/119/8 obtained in 1967. emm1.0 subtype definitive sequence. 30 bases encoding signal sequence and 150 bases encoding mature residues 1-50. emm1.0.sds Length: 180 July 7, 2006 14:05 Type: N Check: 7704 .. 1 GGTTTTGCGA ATCAAACAGA GGTTAAGGCT AACGgtgatg gtaatcctag 51 ggaagTTATA GAAGATCTTG CAGCAAACAA TCCCGCAATA CAAAATATAC 101 GTTTACGTCA CGAAAACAAG GACTTAAAAG CGAGATTAGA GAATGCAATG 151 GAAGTTGCAG GAAGAGATTT TAAGAGAGCT
