Prokaryotic expression, purification and immunogenicity analysis of CpsD protein from Streptococcus iniae
Streptococcus iniae is a major cause of serious bacterial infections in both fish and human beings. Capsular polysaccharide (CPS) of S. iniae is vital to evade phagocytic clearance of the host and serves as an important protective antigen of S. iniae infection in aquatic animals. The CpsD gene was determined to be highly conservative in capsule polysaccharide operon. Prokaryotic expression of t...

متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY FbsA, a fibrinogen-binding protein from Streptococcus agalactiae, mediates platelet aggregation
The bacterium Streptococcus agalactiae is an etiologic agent in the pathogenesis of endocarditis in humans. FbsA, a fibrinogen-binding protein produced by this pathogen, is considered an important virulence factor. In the present study we provide evidence that S agalactiae clinical isolates bearing FbsA attach to fibrinogen and elicit a fibrinogen-dependent aggregation of platelets. Mutants of ...
