Bordetella filamentous hemagglutinin and adenylate cyclase toxin interactions on the bacterial surface are consistent with FhaB-mediated delivery of ACT to phagocytic cells

ABSTRACTBordetella species that cause respiratory infections in mammals include B. pertussis, which causes human whooping cough, and B. bronchiseptica, which infects nearly all mammals. Both bacterial species produce filamentous hemagglutinin (FhaB) and adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT), prominent surfa...
