Abstract
Nasopharyngeal colonization by Streptococcus pneumoniae precedes invasive disease and mediates community transmission of the pathogen. In this issue, Moffitt et al. (2011) used proteomic analysis to identify conserved pneumococcal protein vaccine antigens that elicit T(H)17-dependent responses capable of preventing such colonization.
