Abstract: Intramolecular isopeptide bonds, formed autocatalytically between Lys and Asn/Asp side chains, are widely present in the immunoglobulin-like domains of Gram-positive bacterial adhesins, including Group A Streptococcus, and confer considerable mechanical and chemical stability. These properties… read more here.
