Identification and characterization of the surface-layer protein of Clostridium tetani.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Sept 2007

Abstract excerpt

Many bacterial species produce a paracrystalline layer, the surface layer, which completely surrounds the exterior of the cell. In some bacteria, the surface layer is implicated in pathogenesis. Two proteins present in cell wall extracts from Clostridium tetani have been investigated and identified one of these has been unambiguously as the surface-layer protein (SLP). The gene, slpA, has been located in the...
