Assay development for the discovery of small-molecule inhibitors of YadA adhesion to collagen

We set out to develop scalable assays to measure bacterial adhesion to mammalian extracellular matrix proteins, with the aim to perform high-throughput screening for inhibitors. Our model system is the trimeric autotransporter adhesin YadA from Yersinia enterocolitica that binds to collagen.Using ba...
