Structural and functional insights of sortases and their interactions with antivirulence compounds

Sortase proteins play a crucial role as integral membrane proteins in anchoring bacterial surface proteins by recognizing them through a Cell-Wall Sorting (CWS) motif and cleaving them at specific sites before initiating pilus assembly. Both sortases and their substrate proteins are major virulence...
