Chromosomal rearrangement and serovar conversion in Leptospira biflexa strains.

Abstract excerpt

A bacterial population change involving chromosomal rearrangement and phenotypic changes in antigens, proteins and lipopolysaccharides is described for strains of Leptospira biflexa that were previously grown in media containing homologous oligoclonal antibodies. The chromosomal rearrangement phenomenon showed that the variants differed from the parent strains, yet they were similar to phenotypically related...
