Lmb, a Protein with Similarities to the LraI Adhesin Family, Mediates Attachment of <i>Streptococcus agalactiae</i> to Human Laminin

1 Feb 1999

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus agalactiae is a leading cause of neonatal sepsis and meningitis. Adherence to extracellular matrix proteins is considered an important factor in the pathogenesis of infection, but the genetic determinants of this process remain largely unknown. We identified and sequenced a gene which codes for a putative lipoprotein that exhibits significant homology to the streptococcal LraI protein family....
