An opsonic function of the neutrophil bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein depends on both its N- and C-terminal domains

The host response to Gram-negative bacterial infection is influenced by two homologous lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-interactive proteins, LPS-binding protein (LBP) and the bacteridical/permeability-increasing protein (BPI). Both proteins bind LPS via their N-terminal domains but produce profoundly diffe...
