Structural basis for collagen recognition by the <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> M3 protein and its involvement in biofilm

2024-12-20

Abstract excerpt

The M protein is an essential virulence factor of Streptococcus pyogenes , or group A streptococcus (GAS), one of the most common and dangerous human pathogens. Molecular and functional characterization of M protein variants and their interactions with host components is crucial for understanding streptococcal pathogenesis and vaccine development. The M3 protein is produced by the prevalent emm 3 GAS serotype, w...
