Sialic acid mediated mechanical activation of β(2) adrenergic receptors by bacterial pili

Meningococcus utilizes β-arrestin selective activation of endothelial cell β(2) adrenergic receptor (β(2)AR) to cause meningitis in humans. Molecular mechanisms of receptor activation by the pathogen and of its species selectivity remained elusive. We report that β(2)AR activation requires two aspar...
