Molecular cloning of a Coxiella burnetii gene encoding a macrophage infectivity potentiator (Mip) analogue
1 Nov 1995
Abstract excerpt
The gene encoding a protein that reacted with antibodies specific for Legionella pneumophila macrophage infectivity potentiator (LpMip) was cloned from Coxiella burnetii, the obligate intracellular rickettsia that causes Q fever in humans. Nucleotide sequencing analysis revealed an ORF encoding a gene product of 230 amino acids with a molecular mass of 25.5 kDa and a predicted pI of 10.7. The predicted amino acid...
