Characterization of a novel fibronectin‐binding surface protein in group A streptococci
1 Jul 1995
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus pyogenes interacts with host fibronectin via distinct surface components. One of these components is the Sfbl protein (streptococcal fibronectin-binding protein, now specified as class I), an adhesin that represents a protein family with characteristic features. Here we present the complete structure of a novel fibronectin-binding protein of S. pyogenes, designated Sfbll, which is distinct from the...
