The Chlamydial Plasmid-Encoded Protein pgp3 Is Secreted into the Cytosol of<i>Chlamydia</i>-Infected Cells
13 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
The chlamydial cryptic plasmid encodes eight putative open reading frames (ORFs), designated pORF1 to -8. Antibodies raised against these ORF proteins were used to localize the endogenous proteins during chlamydial infection. We found that the pORF5 protein (also known as pgp3) was detected mainly in the cytosol of Chlamydia-infected cells, while the remaining seven proteins were found inside the chlamydial...
