Surface Adhesins

Surface Adhesin is a microbial cell-surface protein that mediates specific attachment to host tissues or abiotic surfaces, distinguishing it from other virulence factors by its primary role in the initial adherence phase of biofilm formation and colonization in oral and systemic infections.
