Allelic variation in the highly polymorphic locus pspC of Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Gene - 6 Feb 2002

Iannelli Francesco, Oggioni Marco R, Pozzi Gianni

Abstract excerpt

PspC, also called SpsA, CbpA, PbcA, and Hic, is a surface protein of Streptococcus pneumoniae studied for its antigenic properties, its capability to bind secretory IgA, C3 and complement factor H, and its activity as an adhesin. In this work we characterized the pspC locus of 43 pneumococcal strains by DNA sequencing of PCR fragments. Using PCR primers designed on two unrelated open reading frames, flanking the...
