emm3.40 (emm-cluster A-C5) subtype determining region. Identity to bases 
31-180 and ungapped identity or near-identity to the entire 180 base 
sequence defines this subtype.

emm3.40 from upper respiratory isolate 1RP228(multilocus sequence type ST15)
recovered during 1959 in New York. Unusual in that the M protein is
predicted to be truncated due to an 8 base insertion (bases 184-191).
From Lancefield collection.Sequence and information provided by Dr. Debra 
 Bessen.
