Multifunctional Staphylococcus aureus Autolysin Aaa Mediates Adherence to Immobilized Fibrinogen and Fibronectin

Staphylococci can cause a wide spectrum of infections, including endocarditis, osteomyelitis, and sepsis, which is reflected by the numerous virulence factors they produce, among them a recently identified new class of adhesins, namely, the multifunctional autolysins/adhesins. Here we report the ide...
