The solute‐binding component of a putative Mn(II) ABC transporter (MntA) is a novel Bacillus anthracis virulence determinant
13 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
Here we describe the characterization of a lipoprotein previously proposed as a potential Bacillus anthracis virulence determinant and vaccine candidate. This protein, designated MntA, is the solute-binding component of a manganese ion ATP-binding cassette transporter. Coupled proteomic-serological screen of a fully virulent wild-type B. anthracis Vollum strain, confirmed that MntA is expressed both in vitro and...
