This study shows Group A Streptococcus remains viable inside fibrin clots and accesses plasminogen to dissolve clots and disseminate, with faster dissolution when plasminogen is pre-bound to the bacteria.

SweepCluster detects gene-specific sweeps in prokaryotes by clustering polymorphisms with spatial awareness and pre-selection based on genetic signatures, achieving high accuracy and sensitivity.
