Lipid moieties on lipoproteins of commensal and non-commensal staphylococci induce differential immune responses
The Lpp lipoproteins of staphylococci trigger a TLR2-dependent immune response. Here, the authors show that commensal species (S. aureus, S. epidermidis) induce a less-intense TLR2 response than non-commensal species (S. carnosus) due to differential modification of the Lpp lipid moieties.
