Sequence diversity of the 60-kilodalton protein and of a putative 15-kilodalton protein between the trachoma and lymphogranuloma venereum biovars of Chlamydia trachomatis.

Abstract excerpt

DNA from Chlamydia trachomatis serovars L3, C, and E corresponding to the open reading frames of the 60-kDa protein and of a putative 15-kDa protein was sequenced. The open reading frames coding for the 60-kDa protein had 1,641 bp in the three serovars. Compared with the L3 serovar, there were 9 and 11 amino acid changes in the C and E serovars, respectively. The open reading frames corresponding to the putative...
