Same, Same, but Different: Molecular Analyses of <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> Immune Evasion Proteins Identifies new Domains and Reveals Structural Differences between PspC and Hic Variants
2020-08-11
Abstract excerpt
PspC and Hic proteins of Streptococcus pneumoniae are some of the most variable microbial immune evasion proteins identified to date. Due to structural similarities and conserved binding profiles it was assumed over a long time that these pneumococcal surface proteins represent a protein family, comprising eleven subgroups. Recently, however, by evaluating more proteins larger diversity of individual proteins bec...
