Abstract

S. lugdunensis is an important human pathogen that causes 44% of coagulase negative staphylococcal native valve endocarditis as well as infections such as osteomyelitis and soft tissue abscesses. S. lugdunensis expresses a fibrinogen affinity factor the gene product of the 2426 bp fbl gene which encodes a protein of 881 amino acids.
