Abstract excerpt
The single amino acid substitutions were created in the C-terminal region of listeriolysin O. Mutations cys484 to Ala and Ser showed a close relationship between surface activity of LLO and presence of cysteine in this polipeptide. We demonstrated that Cys484 is necessary for surface haemolytic activity. LLO with Cys484 is strongly connected to the surface of the cell but LLO Ala484 or Ser484 is easy removed by...
