| M protein |
 |
Surface protein: LPXTG motif. M proteins are used for classification of S. pyogenes strains into M serotypes because of N-terminal hypervariable region that exhibits extensive sequence variability between strains. ... |

PspA
(Pneumococcal surface protein A) |
|
Surface protein: choline binding protein. Four distinct domains:. An N-terminal highly charged α-helical region forms a coiled-coil structure, contains the protection-eliciting epitopes and much of the variability in sequence. A proline-rich domain acts as a tether and allows for greater flexibility and movement of the N-terminal functional module. A stretch of 10 highly conserved 20-amino-acid repeats, choline-binding domain. A tail of slightly hydrophobic residues at the C terminus. ... |

SIC
(Streptococcal inhibitor of complement-mediated lysis) |
|
A hypervariable extracellular protein, with the amount of polymorphism far exceeding that present in any bacterial protein except those directly associated with antibiotic resistance. This variation may arise from pressure from the immune system that makes it expedient for the bacteria to change their surface antigens. ... |
|
F1 antigen
(Fraction 1 capsular antigen) |
|
Virulence factors unique to Y. pestis,. Forms fibrillar structures on the bacterial surface and appears to prevent phagocytosis. ... |

Capsular polysaccharide. ... |

| Capsule |
|
A. baumannii pan-genome was shown to include a highly diverse repertoire of gene sequences. In particular, capsule gene cluster is highly variable. The cluster at the K locus often contains either capsule export genes (wza, wzb, and wzc) or genes for simple sugar synthesis (galU, ugd, gpi, gne1, and pgm), which flank a central variable region that would be required for the synthesis of a specific monosaccharide. ... |
