Immunoglobulin M-degrading enzyme of Streptococcus suis (IdeSsuis) impairs porcine B cell signaling

Streptococcus suis (S. suis) is an important porcine pathogen, causing severe disease like meningitis and septicemia primarily in piglets. Previous work showed that the IgM-degrading enzyme of S. suis (IdeSsuis) specifically cleaves soluble porcine IgM and is involved in complement evasion. The obje...
