Identification of targetable epitope surfaces from the high resolution structure of the superantigen Staphylococcal Enterotoxin L

2026-03-14

Abstract excerpt

Emetic exotoxins secreted by Staphylococcus species (Staphylococcal enterotoxins, SEs) are a major cause of food poisoning cases worldwide and many are additionally classified as superantigens – able to potently activate T cells in an antigen independent manner. Fewer than half of the gene products of the known SE genes have been extensively characterized. The gene for Staphylococcal enterotoxin L (SEL) occurs in...
