Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcal protein A is a cell wall constituent of most strains of Staphylococcus aureus, and it is characterized by its binding affinity to some immunological classes. A mutated low molecular weight type protein A (LPA; Mwt = 27 kDa) which consists of the domains, E, D, A, B and 13 residues of the C-domain was prepared in this study. Since LPA does not possess a cell wall-bound region in contrast to...
