NadA3 Structures Reveal Undecad Coiled Coils and LOX1 Binding Regions Competed by Meningococcus B Vaccine-Elicited Human Antibodies

The bacterial microbe Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B (MenB) is a major cause of devastating meningococcal disease. An approved multicomponent vaccine, 4CMenB, protects against MenB. Neisserial adhesin A (NadA) is a key vaccine antigen and acts in host cell-pathogen interactions. We investigated...
