Antibody recognition of bacterial pathogens is important for activating complement and macrophage-mediated processes. Many bacterial antigens, however, undergo genetic variation to avoid antibody recognition. A synthetic glycoconjugate can direct antibodies to E. coli cells via their type 1 pili mannose-specific receptors. The receptor targeted antibodies activate both complement and macrophage-mediated processes that result in cell death. Bacterial cell-surface receptors can therefore be exploited to confer antigenicity onto the organism.
