The Laminin-Binding Protein Lbp from <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> Is a Zinc Receptor

18 Jul 2009

Abstract excerpt

The common pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes colonizes the human skin and tonsils and can invade underlying tissues. This requires the adhesion of S. pyogenes to host surface receptors mediated through adhesins. The laminin-binding protein Lbp has been suggested as an adhesin, specific for the human extracellular matrix protein laminin. Sequence alignments, however, indicate a relationship between Lbp and a family...
