Moraxella catarrhalis adheres to the extracellular matrix in the respiratory tract. Cartoon that illustrates a disrupted bronchial epithelium and how M. catarrhalis colonises the human lung by using ubiquitous surface protein (Usp) A1 and UspA2 to adhere to laminin, collagen, fibronectin (Fn) and vitronectin (Vn).
