Cross-phosphorylation of RR06 by the non-cognate kinase VncS activates the adhesin CbpA in <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i>
2026-07-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Streptococcus pneumoniae establishes asymptomatic nasopharyngeal colonization before progressing to invasive disease, a process that requires precise spatiotemporal regulation of surface adhesins. Using a barcoded capsule-switch mutant library and randomly barcoded transposon sequencing (RB-TnSeq), we identified determinants of pneumococcal adhesion to the human alveolar epithelial cell line A54...
