The fibronectin adhesin of Candida albicans.
Candida albicans possesses on its cell surface an adhesin which binds the whole viable fungus to subendothelial extracellular matrix and matrix proteins. The adhesin is composed of 75 to 80% carbohydrate and approximately 20 to 25% protein by weight. High-performance liquid chromatography of material eluted from a fibronectin-agarose affinity column demonstrates the presence of three peaks, all...
متن کاملSingle-molecule force spectroscopy of mycobacterial adhesin-adhesin interactions.
The heparin-binding hemagglutinin (HBHA) is one of the few virulence factors identified for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is a surface-associated adhesin that expresses a number of different activities, including mycobacterial adhesion to nonphagocytic cells and microbial aggregation. Previous evidence indicated that HBHA is likely to form homodimers or homopolymers via a predicted coiled-coil...
متن کاملTrmFO, a Fibronectin-Binding Adhesin of Mycoplasma bovis
Mycoplasma bovis is an important pathogenic mycoplasma, causing the cattle industry serious economic losses. Adhesion is a crucial step in the mycoplasmas' infection and colonization process; fibronectin (Fn), an extracellular matrix glycoprotein, is a molecular bridge between the bacterial adhesins and host cell receptors. The present study was designed to characterize the Fn-binding ability o...
متن کاملa study on insurer solvency by panel data model: the case of iranian insurance market
the aim of this thesis is an approach for assessing insurer’s solvency for iranian insurance companies. we use of economic data with both time series and cross-sectional variation, thus by using the panel data model will survey the insurer solvency.
Streptococcus sanguis expresses a 150-kilodalton two-domain adhesin: characterization of several independent adhesin epitopes.
Streptococcus sanguis binds to saliva-coated hydroxylapatite (sHA), an in vitro model of the enamel pellicle. To learn if more than one adhesin functions during adhesion, 12 reactive monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were isolated by screening against both adhesive and nonadhesive strains. Two of these MAbs, 1.1 and 1.2, inhibited adhesion in a dose-dependent fashion, although maximum inhibition wit...
