Pneumococcal Adhesins PavB and PspC Are Important for the Interplay with Human Thrombospondin-1

21 Apr 2015

Abstract excerpt

The human matricellular glycoprotein thrombospondin-1 (hTSP-1) is released by activated platelets and mediates adhesion of Gram-positive bacteria to various host cells. In staphylococci, the adhesins extracellular adherence protein (Eap) and autolysin (Atl), both surface-exposed proteins containing repeating structures, were shown to be involved in the acquisition of hTSP-1 to the bacterial surface. The...
