Abstract
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A Streptococcus [GAS]) is a major human pathogen that occasionally causes severe and life-threatening invasive diseases. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of four GAS strains of three M types, which were isolated from patients with severe invasive disease in Japan.
Highlights
Streptococcus pyogenes is a major human pathogen that causes streptococcal pharyngitis, skin and soft tissue infections, and lifethreatening conditions such as streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) (1)
