Structure of the Neisseria Adhesin Complex Protein (ACP) and its role as a novel lysozyme inhibitor.
Pathogenic and commensal Neisseria species produce an Adhesin Complex Protein, which was first characterised in Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) as a novel surface-exposed adhesin with vaccine potential. In the current study, the crystal structure of a recombinant (r)Nm-ACP Type I protein was determined...
