ABSTRACTStreptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) resides in the nasopharynx, where it can disseminate to cause disease. One key Spn virulence factor is pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA), which promotes survival by blocking the antimicrobial peptide lactoferricin. PspA has also been shown to mediate attach...
