Species code:	STRPN
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Firmicutes; Lactobacillales; Streptococcaceae; Streptococcus (TaxID: 1313) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Gram-positive nonmotile bacterium. It is the most common bacterial cause of acute respiratory infection and otitis media and is estimated to result in over 3 millions deaths in children every year worldwide from pneumonia, bacteremia or meningitidis. Even more deaths occur among elderly people. Since 1990 the number of penicillin-resistant strains has increased and many strains are now resistant to commonly prescribed antibiotics such as penicillin, macrolides and fluoroquinones.
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 STRPN entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 2109 (484 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 1625 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)

Genome structure:	Chromosome EMBL accession number AE005672 (circular; 2,160,842 bp) (download entry) (download Genome Reviews).
