Mouse anti-Lactobacillus rhamnosus SpaC

Mouse anti-Lactobacillus rhamnosus
Antibody against pilin protein SpaC of Lactobacillus rhamnosus. The Gram positive probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG expresses pili on its cell surface that promote adhesion to surfaces and colonization of the human gut epithelium. The pili are composed of three pilin subunits SpaABC. SpaA is the major structural pilin while the SpaC is required for efficient adhesion properties. This antibody recognizes both native and recombinant SpaC, either in folded or denatured form.
