The negatively charged regions of lactoferrin binding protein B, an adaptation against anti-microbial peptides.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Morgenthau Ari, Beddek Amanda, Schryvers Anthony B

Abstract excerpt

Lactoferrin binding protein B (LbpB) is a bi-lobed membrane bound lipoprotein that is part of the lactoferrin receptor complex in a variety of Gram-negative pathogens. Despite high sequence diversity among LbpBs from various strains and species, a cluster of negatively charged amino acids is inva...
