Abstract excerpt
Members of the Omp25/Omp31 family of surface proteins were previously shown to participate in the virulence of some Brucella species and a different distribution of the seven proteins of this family among species could be related to the difference in pathogenicity and host preference they exhibit. Accordingly, in this work we have analyzed the expression of the genes coding for the Omp25/Omp31 family in the six...
