Primary Identifier | IPR026359 | Type | Domain |
Short Name | SasC_Mrp_aggreg_dom |
description | This domain, about 375 amino acids long on average, occurs mainly in Staphylococcus. It occurs as a non-repetitive N-terminal domain of LPXTG-anchored surface proteins, including SasC, Mrp, and FmtB. This region in SasC was shown to be involved in cell aggregation and biofilm formation, which may explain the methicillin resistance seen for Mrp and FmtB []. |
