<i>MP1</i> Encodes an Abundant and Highly Antigenic Cell Wall Mannoprotein in the Pathogenic Fungus <i>Penicillium marneffei</i>
1 Mar 1998
Abstract excerpt
We cloned the MP1 gene, which encodes an abundant antigenic cell wall mannoprotein from the dimorphic pathogenic fungus Penicillium marneffei. MP1 is a unique gene without homologs in sequence databases. It codes for a protein, Mp1p, of 462 amino acid residues, with a few sequence features that are present in several cell wall proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans. It contains two putative N...
