The Chymotrypsin-Like Protease Complex of Treponema denticola ATCC 35405 Mediates Fibrinogen Adherence and Degradation

Treponema denticola is an anaerobic spirochete strongly associated with human periodontal disease. T. denticola bacteria interact with a range of host tissue proteins, including fibronectin, laminin, and fibrinogen. The latter localizes in the extracellular matrix where tissue damage has occurred, a...
