The br domain of psrp interacts with extracellular dna to promote bacterial aggregation; structural insights into pneumococcal biofilm formation

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Tim Schulte and colleagues from the Department Karolinska University have published the Article: The BR domain of PsrP interacts with extracellular DNA to promote bacterial aggregation; structural insights into pneumococcal biofilm formation, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: PsrP has previously been suggested to promote pneumococcal biofilm formation through residues 122-166 (BR122-166), preceding the globular KRT10-binding MSCRAMM-related BR187-385 domain.

SUMMARY

The authors hypothesized that the N-terminal fragment comprising BR120-166 and SRR1 could be released following proteolysis by furin, similarly to the . . .
