Abstract excerpt
The proteins and antigens of three strains of Mycoplasma fermentans were compared with those of a mycoplasma, designated "Mycoplasma incognitus," recently identified in tissues of AIDS patients. Previous studies have shown that "M. incognitus" is most likely not a new species but rather a strain of M. fermentans. In the present study, one- and two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis demonstrated the expected...
