UM students discover a new protein while investigating the question: โ€œWhy does Streptococcus make you sick?โ€ Strep throat, something weโ€™ve all had at some point in our lives, is caused by the bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes. Infection by Streptococcus can be fatal in serious cases and is the leading cause

Huge congratulations to my graduate students Muna and Nicole, and undergrad Julia! Amazing research into the biochemistry of how the phage protein paratox controls the metabolism of Streptococcus.
