PspA and PspC Minimize Immune Adherence and Transfer of Pneumococci from Erythrocytes to Macrophages through Their Effects on Complement Activation

Pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA) and PspC are important virulence factors. Their absence has been shown to allow improved clearance of pneumococci from the blood of mice and to decrease pneumococcal virulence. In the presence of antibody and complement, pneumococci attach to erythrocytes in a p...
