Staphylococcus aureus foldase PrsA contributes to the folding and secretion of protein A
2 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus secretes a variety of proteins including virulence factors that cause diseases. PrsA, encoded by many Gram-positive bacteria, is a membrane-anchored lipoprotein that functions as a foldase to assist in post-translocational folding and helps maintain the stability of secreted proteins. Our earlier proteomic studies found that PrsA is required for the secretion of protein A, an...
