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 a...
