List of known GBS virulence genes with systematic gene names in three published reference genomes.

a. IS1548 is embedded upstream of
scpB gene in 2603 V/R.
b. although primarily an invasin, cyl is capable of
damaging phagocytes and hence also have a role in immune system
evasion.
c. dual roles of both an invasin and an immune system evading
gene.
d. dual roles of both an adhesin and an immune system evading
gene.
