Regions of the Streptococcus sobrinus spaA gene encoding major determinants of antigen I.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 1990

Goldschmidt R M, Thoren-Gordon M, Curtiss R

Abstract excerpt

Surface protein antigen A (SpaA), also called antigen B, antigen I/II, or antigen P1, is an abundant cell envelope protein that is the major antigenic determinant of Streptococcus sobrinus and other members of the Streptococcus mutans group of cariogenic bacteria. This laboratory has previously reported the cloning and expression in Escherichia coli of a BamHI restriction fragment of S. sobrinus DNA containing...
