Single Domain Antibodies Targeting Receptor Binding Pockets of NadA Restrain Adhesion of Neisseria meningitidis to Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells

Neisseria adhesin A (NadA), one of the surface adhesins of Neisseria meningitides (NM), interacts with several cell types including human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMECs) and play important role in the pathogenesis. Receptor binding pockets of NadA are localized on the globular head do...
