The modular architecture of meningococcal factor H-binding protein.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Sept 2009

Beernink Peter T, Granoff Dan M

Abstract excerpt

Meningococcal factor H binding protein (fHbp) is a promising vaccine antigen that binds the human complement downregulatory molecule factor H (fH), and this binding enhances the survival of the organism in serum. Based on sequence variability of the entire protein, fHbp has been divided into thre...
