Protein expression services for pfbA | Plasmin and fibronectin-binding protein A

Description
Acts as a fibronectin-dependent adhesin and invasin. Binds host (in this case human) fibronectin, plasmin, plasminogen, and human serum albumin. Where the bacteria adhere to human cells there is major recruitment of microvilli which seem to fuse to cover the streptococcal chains. Antibodies to this protein reduce bacterial growth in human blood.
