Identification of an immunodominant region on a group A Streptococcus T-antigen reveals temperature-dependent motion in pili

Identification of an immunodominant region on a group A Streptococcus T-antigen reveals temperature-dependent motion in pili

ABSTRACTGroup A Streptococcus (GAS) is a globally important pathogen causing a broad range of human diseases. GAS pili are elongated proteins with a backbone comprised repeating T-antigen subunits, which extend from the cell surface and have important roles in adhesion and establishing infection. No...
