Extracellular targeting of choline-binding proteins in Streptococcus pneumoniae by a zinc metalloprotease.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Apr 2000

Abstract excerpt

A genetic-based search for surface proteins of Streptococcus pneumoniae involved in adhesion identified a putative zinc metalloprotease (ZmpB). ZmpB shared high amino acid sequence similarities with IgA1 proteases of Gram-positive bacteria, but ZmpB had neither IgA1 nor IgA2 protease activity. Analysis of a family of surface-expressed proteins, the choline-binding proteins (Cbp's), in a zmpB-deficient mutant...
