Nucleotide sequence variations in the penicillin-binding protein 1A (pbp1a) gene of Streptococcus pneumoniae. Row 1, S.pneumoniae R6; row 2, serotype (Ser) 8-ST53; row 3, serotype 8-ST63; row 4, Sweden 15A-ST63 reference strain. Polymorphic sites are numbered in a vertical format. Nucleotides are numbered according to their positions in the gene. Only polymorphic sites are shown. Dots indicate a nucleotide that is identical to that in the R6 sequence. The putative recombination site is shaded in
