Exploring the role of E. faecalis Enterococcal Polysaccharide Antigen (EPA) and lipoproteins in evasion of phagocytosis

Joshua S Norwood, Jessica L. Davis, Bartłomiej Salamaga…·Stéphane Mesnage

This study develops an in vitro assay to investigate how EPA decorations on E. faecalis affect phagocytosis, showing that decoration deletion increases phagocytosis and that lipoproteins are not involved.
