Homologue Scanning Mutagenesis Reveals Cd66 Receptor Residues Required for Neisserial Opa Protein Binding

The immunoglobulin-like family of CD66 antigens, present on human neutrophils and epithelial cells, are used as receptors for adhesins expressed by the pathogenic Neisseriae. N. gonorrhoeae strain MS11 can express 11 isoforms of these adhesins, called opacity-related (Opa) proteins. Each MS11 Opa pr...
