Importance of the collagen adhesin ace in pathogenesis and protection against Enterococcus faecalis experimental endocarditis.

PLoS pathogens - 8 Jan 2010

Singh Kavindra V, Nallapareddy Sreedhar R, Sillanpää Jouko, Murray Barbara E

Abstract excerpt

Ace is an adhesin to collagen from Enterococcus faecalis expressed conditionally after growth in serum or in the presence of collagen. Here, we generated an ace deletion mutant and showed that it was significantly attenuated versus wild-type OG1RF in a mixed infection rat endocarditis model (P<0....
