Characterization of igaB, a second immunoglobulin A1 protease gene in nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae.

Infection and immunity - 1 Oct 2006

Fernaays Matthew M, Lesse Alan J, Cai Xueya, Murphy Timothy F

Abstract excerpt

Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae is an important respiratory pathogen, causing otitis media in children and lower respiratory tract infection in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Immunoglobulin A1 (IgA1) protease is a well-described protein and potential virulence factor in this organism as well as other respiratory pathogens. IgA1 proteases cleave human IgA1, are involved in invasion,...
