The serine-rich repeat glycoprotein Srr2 mediates Streptococcus agalactiae interaction with host fibronectin

2024-03-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a commensal of healthy adults and an important pathogen in newborns, the elderly and immunocompromised individuals. GBS displays several virulence factors that promote colonisation and host infection, including the ST-17 strain-specific adhesin Srr2, previously characterised for its binding to fibrinogen. Another common target for bacterial adhesins and for host...
