Analysis of pmpD Expression and PmpD Post-Translational Processing during the Life Cycle of Chlamydia trachomatis Serovars A, D, and L2
14 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The polymorphic membrane protein D (PmpD) in Chlamydia is structurally similar to autotransporter proteins described in other bacteria and may be involved in cellular and humoral protective immunity against Chlamydia. The mechanism of PmpD post-translational processing and the role of its protein products in the pathogenesis of chlamydial infection have not been very well elucidated to date....
