Slipped strand mispairing in the gene encoding sialidase NanH3 in <i>Gardnerella</i> spp

2020-09-17

Abstract excerpt

Cell wall proteins with sialidase activity are involved in carbohydrate assimilation, adhesion to mucosal surfaces, and biofilm formation. Gardnerella spp. inhabit the human vaginal microbiome and encode up to three sialidase enzymes, two of which are suspected to be cell wall associated. Here we demonstrate that the gene encoding extracellular sialidase NanH3 is found almost exclusively in G. piotii and closely...
