Novel Laminin-Binding Protein of Streptococcus pyogenes, Lbp, Is Involved in Adhesion to Epithelial Cells

The lbp gene, which encodes a laminin-binding protein (Lbp) of Streptococcus pyogenes, was found in all S. pyogenes M types. An Lbp-deficient mutant showed a significantly lower efficiency of adhesion to HEp-2 cells than did the wild-type strain. These results indicate that Lbp is one of the importa...
