abstract：:Moraxella catarrhalis is an important pathogen of respiratory and middle ear infections. We previously reported that the attachment of M. catarrhalis to pharyngeal epithelial cells is mediated by ganglioside M2 (GM2). Several sets of adhesins or receptors are involved in such attachment process. In this study, we used...
