The role of Moraxella catarrhalis outer membrane proteins in pathogenesis
… ACT through the two active domains on both UspA1 and A2 proteins. The phenomenon is proposed to be important for a) protease-antiprotease balance in the lung, for b) exacerbating inflammation and for c) inhibition of phagocytic clearance of M. catarrhalis. The localization of ACT binding …

Biofilm Formation by Moraxella Catarrhalis
… surface that were identified as the proteins UspA1, UspA2, and Hag, which are all putative members of the autotransporter protein family. The Hag protein of strain O35E was shown to be necessary for hemagglutination, autoagglutination, and binding of human IgD. A crystal violet-based assay …

Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles. Mediators of virulence and antibiotic resistance.
Outer membrane vesicles (OMV) have the size of nanoparticles and are released from the outer membrane of most Gram-negative bacteria. The OMV reflect the composition of the bacterial outer membrane, including lipids and virulence factors specific for the pathogen, and are involved in pathogenesis …
