Pneumococcal IgA1 Protease Subverts Specific Protection By Human IgA1

Bacterial IgA1 proteases may sabotage the protective effects of IgA. In vitro, both exogenous and endogenously-produced IgA1 protease inhibited phagocytic killing of Streptococcus pneumoniae by capsule-specific IgA1 human monoclonal antibodies (hMAb's), but not IgA2. These IgA1 proteases cleave...
