Generation of Campylobacter fetus S-layer protein diversity utilizes a single promoter on an invertible DNA segment.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Mar 1996

Dworkin J, Blaser M J

Abstract excerpt

Wild-type strains of Campylobacter fetus contain a monomolecular array of surface layer proteins (SLPs) and vary the antigenicity of the predominant SLP expressed. Reciprocal recombination events among the eight genomic SLP gene cassettes, which encode 97- to 149 kDa SLPs, permit this variation. To explore whether SLP expression utilizes a single promoter, we created mutant bacterial strains using insertional...
