Abstract excerpt
The protective immunity against Salmonella typhimurium-infection in mice immunized with porins from mutant strains of S. typhimurium was studied. A high level of protection against S. typhimurium infection was achieved in mice immunized with native porins from S. typhimurium LT2 (wild-type strain) but not from S. typhimurium SH6017, SH6260, or SH5551 (mutant strains), which produce 34K, 35K, or 36K porin,...
