<i>In vitro</i>investigation of molecules involved in<i>Lactobacillus gasseri</i>SBT2055 adhesion to host intestinal tract components

Abstract

Although the contribution of SDPs to adhesion has been reported using sortase gene disruptants, this is the first report to identify the precise SDPs that act as adhesion molecules. Our results will contribute to achieving better understanding of probiotic bacterial adherence.
