Cooperation between coagulase and von willebrand factor binding protein in Staphylococcus aureus fibrin pseudocapsule formation

Cooperation between coagulase and von willebrand factor binding protein in Staphylococcus aureus fibrin pseudocapsule formation

The major human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus forms biofilms comprising of a fibrin network that increases attachment to surfaces and shields bacteria from the immune system. It secretes two coagulases, Coagulase (Coa) and von Willebrand factor binding protein (vWbp), which hijack the host coagulat...
