Expression of the Moraxella catarrhalis UspA1 protein undergoes phase variation and is regulated at the transcriptional level.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 2001

Lafontaine E R, Wagner N J, Hansen E J

Abstract excerpt

The UspA1 protein of Moraxella catarrhalis has been shown to function as an adhesin that mediates adherence to human epithelial cell lines in vitro (E. R. Lafontaine, L. D. Cope, C. Aebi, J. L. Latimer, G. H. McCracken, Jr., and E. J. Hansen, J. Bacteriol. 182:1364-1373, 2000). In the present study, cell lysates prepared from individual colonies of several M. catarrhalis wild-type strains were analyzed by Western...
