Clumping factor B is an important virulence factor during Staphylococcus aureus skin infection and a promising vaccine target
Staphylococcus aureus expresses a number of cell wall-anchored proteins that mediate adhesion and invasion of host cells and tissues and promote immune evasion, consequently contributing to the virulence of this organism. The cell wall-anchored protein clumping factor B (ClfB) has previously been sh...
