Molecular Dissection of the <i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> CadF and FlpA Virulence Proteins in Binding to Host Cell Fibronectin

Molecular Dissection of the <i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> CadF and FlpA Virulence Proteins in Binding to Host Cell Fibronectin

<i>Campylobacter jejuni</i>, a zoonotic pathogen that frequently colonizes poultry, possesses two Microbial Surface Components Recognizing Adhesive Matrix Molecule(s) (MSCRAMMs) termed CadF and FlpA that bind to the glycoprotein fibronectin (FN). Previous to this study, it was not known...
