emm118.5 (emm-cluster E3) subtype determining sequence. Identity to bases 31-180 (encodes mature N-terminus) and ungapped identity or near-identity to complete 180 base sequence defines this subtype. emm118.5 from year 2006 GAS pharyngitis isolate TX06-156. Differs from emm118.0 by in-frame deletion of first 7 codons encoding the mature M protein. emm118.5.sds Length: 180 February 5, 2007 13:02 Type: N Check: 401 .. 1 GGCTTTGCAA ACCaAACAGA AGTTAAGGCT GCGGACAGTA ACGCGTCTAG 51 CGTTGCAAAG CTATACAACC AAATCGCCGA TCTTACAGAT AAAAACGGAG 101 AATATCTAGA AAGAATAGAA GAACTGGAAG AGCGACAAAA AAATCTAGAA 151 AAGCTAGAAC GTCAATCTCA AGTAGCAGCA
