Abstract excerpt
Cells of the oral bacterium Streptococcus gordonii express three cytoplasmic membrane-bound lipoproteins with apparent molecular masses of 76 to 78 kDa that are the products of three genes (designated hppA, hppG, and hppH). The lipoproteins are immunologically cross-reactive, contain 60% or more identical amino acid residues, and are highly similar to the AmiA, AliA (PlpA), and AliB substrate-binding protein...
