Group B streptococci inactivate complement component C5a by enzymic cleavage at the C-terminus.

Incubation of recombinant human C5a (rC5a) with the 7360 strain of group B streptococci (GBS) destroyed the ability of rC5a to stimulate chemotaxis or adherence of purified human polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs). Treatment of 125I-labelled rC5a with GBS 7360 correspondingly decreased rC5a binding...
