Variable expression of surface-exposed polymorphic membrane proteins in<i>in vitro</i>-grown<i>Chlamydia trachomatis</i>
7 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
The hypothesized variable expression of polymorphic membrane proteins (PmpA-PmpI) in Chlamydia trachomatis-infected patients was tested by examination of the expression of each Pmp subtype in in vitro-grown C. trachomatis. A panel of monospecific polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies was used to demonstrate surface exposure of Pmps of each subtype by differential immunofluorescence (IF) with and without prior...
