protein A(binds Fc region of IgG. prevents opsonization and phagocytosis)
→S aureus
(※☆Protein A (virulence factor) binds Fc-IgG, inhibiting complement activation and phagocytosis. )
IgA protease(cleaves IgA, allowing bacteria to colonize mucous membrane)→SHiN(S pneumoniae, H influenzae type b, Neisseria)
M protein(☆helps prevent phagocytosis)→ group A streptococci
