On implantation, biomaterials easily get coated with these ECM molecules and the MSCRAMMs mediate bacterial adherence to biomaterials. With the rapid rise in antibiotic resistance, designing alternative strategies to reduce/eliminate bacterial colonization is absolutely essential. METHODS: The Rhusiopathiae surface protein B (RspB) is a collagen-binding MSCRAMM of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae. It also binds to abiotic surfaces. The crystal structure of the collagen-binding region of RspB (rRspB31-348) reported here revealed that RspB also binds collagen by a unique ligand binding mechanism called "Collagen Hug" which is a common theme for collagen-binding MSCRAMMs of many Gram-positive bacteria. Here, we report the interaction studies between rRspB31-348 and silver nanoparticles using methods like gel shift assay, gel permeation chromatography and circular dichroism spectroscopy. RESULTS: The "Collagen Hug" mechanism was inhibited in the presence of silver nanoparticles as rRspB31-348 was unable to bind to collagen. The total loss of binding was likely because of rRspB31-348 and silver nanoparticle protein corona formation and not due to the loss of the structural integrity of rRspB31-348 on binding with nanoparticles as observed from circular dichroism experiments. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE: Interaction of rRspB31-348 with silver nanoparticle impaired its ligand binding mechanism. Details of this inhibition mechanism may be useful for the development of antimicrobial materials and antiadhesion drugs.
