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.
