M1 protein and protein H: IgGFc- and albumin-binding streptococcal surface proteins encoded by adjacent genes
15 Jun 1994
Abstract excerpt
M1 protein and Protein H are surface proteins simultaneously present at the surface of certain strains of Streptococcus pyogenes, important pathogenic bacteria in humans. The present study concerns the structure, protein-binding properties and relationship between these two molecules. The gene encoding M1 protein (emm1) was found immediately upstream of the Protein H gene (sph). Both genes were preceded by a...
