Rearrangement of sapA homologs with conserved and variable regions in Campylobacter fetus.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 1 Aug 1993

Tummuru M K, Blaser M J

Abstract excerpt

The Campylobacter fetus surface-layer (S-layer) proteins mediate both complement resistance and antigenic variation in mammalian hosts. Wild-type strain 23D possesses the sapA gene, which encodes a 97-kDa S-layer protein, and several sapA homologs are present in both wild-type and mutant strains. Here we report that a cloned silent gene (sapA1) in C. fetus can express a functional full-length S-layer protein in...
