Product name:Human filamentous hemagglutinin,FHA ELISA Kit
Description:
Filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), the major 230-kDa adhesin of the whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis, is one of the most efficiently secreted proteins in Gram-negative bacteria. FHA is secreted by means of the two-partner secretion (TPS) pathway. Several important human, animal, and plant pathogens also secrete adhesins and other virulence factors by using this mode of secretion. A TPS system is composed of two separate proteins, with TpsA the secreted protein and TpsB its associated specific outermembrane transporter. All TPS-secreted proteins contain a distinctive N-proximal module essential for secretion, the TPS domain.
