Confirmation of the 89K specificity in highly invasive strains of Chinese SS2 responsible for STSS. (A) Schematic representation of SS2 genomes with 89K and relevant primers highlighted. (B) PCR assay of left border of 89K with primer 1&2. (C) PCR assay of internal gene of 89K with primer 3&4. (D) PCR assay of right border of 89K with primer 5&6. (E) PCR amplification of the complete region spanning 89K with primer 1&6.
