The key factor that enables pathogenic bacteria to establish successful infections lies largely in their ability to escape the host’s immune response and adhere to host surfaces. Vitronectin (Vn) is a multidomain glycoprotein ubiquitously present i

Abstract The secreted von Willebrand factor-binding protein (vWbp) from Staphylococcus aureus interacts with the coagulation factors prothrombin and fibrinogen (Fbg), leading to the non-proteolytic transglutaminase activation of Factor XIII (FXIII).
