Genomes[edit]
the Genomes OnLine Database recorded 23 complete genomes and 201 permanent draft genomes of S. pyogenes. From the selected 19 complete genomes, the basic information of an S. pyogenes genome is as follows: the genome is composed of a single chromosome that is approximately 1.8-Mbp long with a GC content of 38.5 ± 0.1% on average, and includes 1,826 ± 92 protein-coding regions (CDSs), 5 or 6 rRNA operons, and from 57 to 67 tRNA encoding genes. These values of genome size and GC content are usual for the phylum Firmicutes and are low in the Eubacterial domain
