Vbeta-dependent stimulation of bovine and human T cells by host-specific staphylococcal enterotoxins
1 Oct 1997
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus isolates from bovine and ovine species produce unique molecular variants of type C staphylococcal enterotoxin (SEC). The SEC animal variants have greater than 98% amino acid sequence identity with SEC1, a human-associated SEC. The two SEC animal variants have been designated SEC(bovine) and SEC(ovine) according to their corresponding host species. We showed previously that these toxins...
