Structural and functional studies of intrinsically disordered fibronectin-binding proteins

Bacterial fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBPs) mediate adhesion of bacteria to host tissues through binding to the human protein fibronectin (Fn). FnBPs are predicted to contain a series of intrinsically disordered Fn-binding repeats (FnBRs), which undergo a disorder-to-order transition on binding u...
