Abstract

Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus) strain COH1 is a representative strain of serotype III, multi-locus sequence type 17, which is disproportionately associated with neonatal meningitis. Here we report the transcriptome of COH1 when interacting with human brain endothelial cells compared with COH1 alone.

Keywords: Group B Streptococcus; blood-brain barrier; transcriptome.
