Specificity of Campylobacter jejuni adhesin PEB3 for phosphates and structural differences among its ligand complexes

Several biophysical methods are employed to explain the structural and binding properties of the different ligand complexes of PEB3, a glycoprotein adhesion obtained from Campylobacter jejuni. PEB3 is shown to act as a transport protein and can be easily used for utilizing the phosphates from the host.
