Adhesins in Candida glabrata. [PDF]

Journal of Fungi, 2018
The human fungal pathogen Candida glabrata is causing more and more problems in hospitals, as this species shows an intrinsic antifungal drug resistance or rapidly becomes resistant when challenged with antifungals. C.

Yersinia pseudotuberculosis-derived adhesins [PDF]

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2019
Around fifteen surface components referred to adhesins have been identified in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis combining primarily microbiological, molecular and genetic, as well as immunochemical and biophysical methods. Y.

The Flo Adhesin Family [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
The first step in the infection of fungal pathogens in humans is the adhesion of the pathogen to host tissue cells or abiotic surfaces such as catheters and implants. One of the main players involved in this are the expressed cell wall adhesins. Here, we

Adhesins as Targets for Vaccine Development

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999
Blocking the primary stages of infection, namely bacterial attachment to host cell receptors and colonization of the mucosal surface, may be the most effective strategy to prevent bacterial infections. Bacterial attachment usually involves an interaction

Structure of the Head of the Bartonella Adhesin BadA [PDF]

, 2008
Trimeric autotransporter adhesins (TAAs) are a major class of proteins by which pathogenic proteobacteria adhere to their hosts. Prominent examples include Yersinia YadA, Haemophilus Hia and Hsf, Moraxella UspA1 and A2, and Neisseria NadA.

Genotypic Characterization and Biofilm Production of Group B Streptococcus Strains Isolated from Bone and Joint Infections

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Bone and joint infections (BJI) represent the second cause of invasive Group B Streptococcus (GBS) infections. Biofilm formation plays a major role in BJI. This study’s aim was to analyze the genetic features and biofilm production of GBS strains. In six

A Tail of Phage Adhesins [PDF]

Structure, 2018
In this issue of Structure, Dunne et al. (2018) unveil the architecture of Salmonella phage S16 adhesin. The structure unravels a beads-on-a-string topology consisting of three domains of which the C-terminal glycine-rich PGII domain, located at the distal tip of the long tail fiber, mediates cell surface attachment and host recognition.

Adhesion and host cell modulation: critical pathogenicity determinants of Bartonella henselae [PDF]

, 2011
Bartonella henselae, the agent of cat scratch disease and the vasculoproliferative disorders bacillary angiomatosis and peliosis hepatis, contains to date two groups of described pathogenicity factors: adhesins and type IV secretion systems.

Post-translational processing targets functionally diverse proteins in Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae [PDF]

Open Biology, 2016
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is a genome-reduced, cell wall-less, bacterial pathogen with a predicted coding capacity of less than 700 proteins and is one of the smallest self-replicating pathogens. The cell surface of M.
