Species code:	STRA3
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Firmicutes; Lactobacillales; Streptococcaceae; Streptococcus (TaxID: 216495) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Streptococcus agalactiae is a Gram-positive nonmotile bacterium which is the leading cause of bacterial sepsis, pneumoniae and meningitidis in neonates in U.S. and Europe. It usually behaves as a commensal organism that colonizes the gastrointestinal or genital tract. Serotype III is important because it causes a significant percentage of early-onset disease and the majority of late-onset disease. Overall this serotype is responsible for 80% of neonatal meningitidis of Lancefield's group B.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: Animal commensal in Mammalia; Animal pathogen in Mammalia Number of membranes: 1 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of STRA3 entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 1999 (383 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 1616 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
