Mip protein of Legionella pneumophila exhibits peptidyl‐prolyl‐cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) activity
1 May 1992
Abstract excerpt
Legionella pneumophila is an intracellular parasite which is able to survive and multiply in human monocytes and alveolar macrophages. The Mip (macrophage infectivity potentiator) protein has been shown to be an essential virulence factor. A search of translated nucleic acid data bases has shown that the Mip protein from strain Wadsworth possesses regions homologous to those found in the FK506-binding proteins...
