Adhesins of oral streptococci

open access: yesNippon Saikingaku Zasshi, 2013
Oral streptococci comprise a numerically prominent group of oral bacteria that occur primarily on the human tooth surface as members of the biofilm community, commonly referred to as dental plaque. These streptococci are not only causative of dental caries and are primers for colonization of periodontopathic bacteria, but also well known for their ...

MBOVJF4278_00820 encodes a novel cytoadhesin of Mycoplasma bovis binding to heparin

open access: yesInfection and Immunity
Mycoplasma bovis, a minimal bacterium but a notorious cattle pathogen, leads to serious economic losses. This pathogen binding to host cells is emerging as a complex process involving a broad range of surface-exposed structures.

Stopping Tuberculosis at the Gate: The Role of M. tuberculosis Adhesins in Infection and Intervention

open access: yesVaccines
The global burden of tuberculosis (TB), exacerbated by the rise of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), underscores the need for alternative intervention strategies. One promising approach is to block the infection at its earliest

Purification of a mycobacterial adhesin for fibronectin [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1993
Previous studies have demonstrated that mycobacteria attach to fibronectin (FN). The attachment of mycobacteria to FN is considered to be biologically important in Mycobacterium bovis BCG therapy for superficial bladder cancer, initiation of delayed hypersensitivity to mycobacterial antigens, and the phagocytosis of mycobacteria by epithelial cells ...

The Not so Good, the Bad and the Ugly: Differential Bacterial Adhesion and Invasion Mediated by Salmonella PagN Allelic Variants

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
While advances in genomic sequencing have highlighted significant strain variability between and within Salmonella serovars, only a few protein variants have been directly related to evolutionary adaptation for survival, such as host specificity or ...

Malaria adhesins: structure and function [PDF]

open access: yesCellular Microbiology, 2014
The malaria parasite Plasmodium utilizes specialized proteins for adherence to cellular receptors in its mosquito vector and human host. Adherence is critical for parasite development, host cell traversal and invasion, and protection from vector and host immune mechanisms. These vital roles have identified several adhesins as vaccine candidates.
