Molecular basis for inhibition of adhesin-mediated bacterial-host interactions through a peptide-binding domain
Summary: Infections typically begin with pathogens adhering to host cells. For bacteria, this adhesion can occur through specific ligand-binding domains. We identify a 20-kDa peptide-binding domain (PBD) in a 1.5-MDa RTX adhesin of a Gram-negative marine bacterium that colonizes diatoms. The crystal...
