Virulence-associated 15- to 17-kilodalton antigens in Rhodococcus equi: temperature-dependent expression and location of the antigens
1 Jul 1992
Abstract excerpt
Virulent Rhodococcus equi showing 15- to 17-kDa antigens, which is virulent in mice, was found to harbor an 85-kbp plasmid, and the 15- to 17-kDa antigens were found to be associated with possession of the 85-kbp plasmid of R. equi (S. Takai, T. Sekizaki, T. Ozawa, T. Sugawara, Y. Watanabe, and S. Tsubaki, Infect. Immun. 59:4056-4060, 1991). The expression of these antigens was temperature regulated: when cells...
