The bacterial lectin LecA from P. aeruginosa alters membrane organization by dispersing ordered domains
Abstract The dynamic reorganization of plasma membrane nanodomains (lipid rafts) plays a key role in host cell infection by human pathogens. Bacteria can induce the reorganization of lipid rafts as a result of the interactions between bacterial lectins and lipid raft glycosphingolipids (GSLs). Howev...
