| Background | All known serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae contain the pneumococcal surface adhesin A (psaA) lipoprotein, which is a component of the Mn2+ transporter located on their surface. This adhesin plays a crucial role in the ability of pneumococci to adhere to host cells and enhances their pathogenicity. Additionally, PsaA is immunogenic, and its presence during natural colonization of the nasopharynx by pneumococci leads to an increase in antibody production against it. |
