Binding of <italic toggle="yes">Staphylococcus aureus</italic> Protein A to von Willebrand Factor Is Regulated by Mechanical Force

ABSTRACT Binding of Staphylococcus aureus to the large plasma glycoprotein von Willebrand factor (vWF) is controlled by hydrodynamic flow conditions. Currently, we know little about the molecular details of this shear-stress-dependent interaction. Using single-molecule atomic force microscopy, we de...
