Structural Model for Covalent Adhesion of the Streptococcus pyogenes Pilus through a Thioester Bond

The human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes produces pili that are essential for adhesion to host surface receptors. Cpa, the adhesin at the pilus tip, was recently shown to have a thioester-containing domain. The thioester bond is believed to be important in adhesion, implying a mechanism of covalent...
