“…The biofilm-associated protein Bap mentioned previously is involved in S. aureus adherence to abiotic surface, intercellular adhesion, and biofilm accumulation [1,5,7,19]. The Bap-homologous protein Bhp may be involved in biofilm accumulation in S. epidermidis [7]. Some other Staphylococcal surface proteins or cell wall associated proteins that have been implicated in surface attachment/adhesion and possibly biofilm formation include: SasX and SasC (structurally uncharacterized), FnBPs (Fibronectin binding proteins), ClfB and Protein A [5].…”
