Surface protein of a Streptococcus agalactiae isolate [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1979
A Streptococcus agalactiae isolate of bovine origin was cultured in broth; log-phase cells were washed and radioiodinated and subsequently extracted at low pH in the presence of a nonionic detergent. A protein antigen was purified from concentrated extract by ultracentrifugation, gel filtration, and ion-exchange chromatography.

Immunogenic Properties of Streptococcus agalactiae FbsA Fragments

PLoS ONE, 2013
Several species of Gram-positive bacteria can avidly bind soluble and surface-associated fibrinogen (Fng), a property that is considered important in the pathogenesis of human infections. To gain insights into the mechanism by which group B Streptococcus (GBS), a frequent neonatal pathogen, interacts with Fng, we have screened two phage displayed ...
