Inactivation of Haemophilus influenzae Lipopolysaccharide Biosynthesis Genes Interferes with Outer Membrane Localization of the Hap Autotransporter

Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae is a major cause of localized respiratory tract disease and initiates infection by colonizing the nasopharynx. Colonization requires adherence to host epithelial cells, which is mediated by surface proteins such as the Hap adhesin. In this study, we identified a re...
