Evolution of host-microbe cell adherence by receptor domain shuffling

2021-08-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Stable adherence to epithelial surfaces is required for colonization by diverse host-associated microbes. Successful attachment of pathogenic microbes via surface adhesin molecules is also the first step in many devastating infections. Despite the primacy of epithelial adherence in establishing host-microbe associations, the evolutionary processes that shape this crucial interface remain enigmat...
