Identification of two porcine brush border glycoproteins that bind the K88ac adhesin of Escherichia coli and correlation of these glycoproteins with the adhesive phenotype.

Abstract excerpt

In this study, we identified two brush border glycoproteins (210 and 240 kDa) that bind both K88ac+ Escherichia coli and purified K88ac adhesin. The specificity of these binding glycoproteins for the K88ac adhesin was demonstrated in studies in which the binding of 35S-labeled K88ac+ E. coli and biotinylated K88ac adhesin to these glycoproteins was blocked in the presence of a 100-fold molar excess of unlabeled...
