ORAL STREPTOCOCCI UTILIZE A SIGLEC-LIKE DOMAIN OF SERINE-RICH REPEAT ADHESINS TO PREFERENTIALLY TARGET PLATELET SIALOGLYCANS IN HUMAN BLOOD.

Oral streptococci utilize a Siglec-like domain of serine-rich repeat adhesins to preferentially target platelet sialoglycans in human blood.

Damaged cardiac valves attract blood-borne bacteria, and infective endocarditis is often caused by viridans group streptococci.While such bacteria use multiple adhesins to maintain their normal oral commensal state, recognition of platelet sialoglycans provides an intermediary for binding to damaged valvular endocardium.We use a customized sialogly
