Unraveling the role of surface mucus-binding protein and pili in muco-adhesion of Lactococcus lactis.

Unraveling the role of surface mucus-binding protein and pili in muco-adhesion of Lactococcus lactis.

Adhesion of bacteria to mucus may favor their persistence within the gut and their beneficial effects to the host. Interactions between pig gastric mucin (PGM) and a natural isolate of Lactococcus lactis (TIL448) were measured at the single-cell scale and under static conditions, using atomic force...
