Essential role of calcium in extending RTX adhesins to their target
Journal of Structural Biology: X, 2020 RTX adhesins are long, multi-domain proteins present on the outer membrane of many Gram-negative bacteria. From this vantage point, adhesins use their distal ligand-binding domains for surface attachment leading to biofilm formation.

Binding Strength of Gram-Positive Bacterial Adhesins
, 2020 Bacterial pathogens are equipped with specialized surface-exposed proteins that bind strongly to ligands on host tissues and biomaterials. These adhesins play critical roles during infection, especially during the early step of adhesion where the cells ...

Purification of a mycobacterial adhesin for fibronectin [PDF]
Infection 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 ...

Comparative functional genomic analysis of Pasteurellaceae adhesins using phage display [PDF]
, 2007 The Pasteurellaceae contain a number of important animal pathogens. Although related, the various members of this family cause a diversity of pathology in a wide variety of organ systems. Adhesion is an important virulence factor in bacterial infections.
