What is Glycosylated SRRPs in Bacterial Pathogenesis about?
This review discusses serine-rich repeat proteins (SRRPs), which are a family of adhesins found in Gram-positive bacteria that mediate attachment to host and bacterial surfaces. SRRPs contribute to diseases like endocarditis, pneumonia, and meningitis. They are unique in that they are glycosylated and require a non-canonical Sec translocase for transport. The core of SRRPs is largely composed of repeating serine residues. Non-repeat domains near the terminus mediate adhesion by binding to substrates like si
