Characterization of <i>Streptococcus suis</i> Genes Encoding Proteins Homologous to Sortase of Gram-Positive Bacteria

15 Feb 2002

Abstract excerpt

Many surface proteins which are covalently linked to the cell wall of gram-positive bacteria have a consensus C-terminal motif, Leu-Pro-X-Thr-Gly (LPXTG). This sequence is cleaved, and the processed protein is attached to an amino group of a cross-bridge in the peptidoglycan by a specific enzyme called sortase. Using the type strain of Streptococcus suis, NCTC 10234, we found five genes encoding proteins that...
