Polymorphism in the collagen-like region of the Bacillus anthracis BclA protein leads to variation in exosporium filament length.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 2003

Sylvestre Patricia, Couture-Tosi Evelyne, Mock Michèle

Abstract excerpt

We recently identified a Bacillus anthracis glycoprotein which is a structural constituent of the exosporium filaments (P. Sylvestre, E. Couture-Tosi, and M. Mock, Mol. Microbiol. 45:169-178, 2002). This Bacillus collagen-like protein (BclA) contains an internal collagen-like region (CLR) of GXX repeats which includes a large proportion of GPT triplets. Here, we report that the polymorphic marker Ceb-Bams13, for...
