Abstract excerpt

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important pathogen that causes chronic infections that involve multicellular aggregates called biofilms. Within biofilms, bacteria are surrounded in a protective extracellular matrix of proteins, exopolysaccharides (EPS), and DNA. A key P. aeruginosa matrix protein is an extracellular adhesin called CdrA, which promotes aggregation by binding to the EPS Psl and via CdrA-CdrA...
