The Mammalian Membrane Microenvironment Regulates the Sequential Attachment of Bacteria to Host Cells

ABSTRACT Pathogen attachment to host tissue is critical in the progress of many infections. Bacteria use adhesion in vivo to stabilize colonization and subsequently regulate the deployment of contact-dependent virulence traits. To specifically target host cells, they decorate themselves with adhesin...
