LPS and LTA: sticking, binding and anchoring? Using cutting-edge glycobiology to address molecular interactions of bacteria cell-wall biomarker with h

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) from bacteria is an important activator of immune cells. Their soluble form released from the bacterial cell-wall interact with an array of host molecules found "out, on or in" cells, and are thought to activate defense mechanisms. However, how these bacterial components engage in many…
