Molecular characterization of Mycoplasma arthritidis variable surface protein MAA2.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jun 1998

Washburn L R, Weaver K E, Weaver E J, Donelan W, Al-Sheboul S

Abstract excerpt

Earlier studies implied a role for Mycoplasma arthritidis surface protein MAA2 in cytadherence and virulence and showed that it exhibited both size and phase variability. Here we report the further analysis of MAA2 and the cloning and sequencing of the maa2 gene from two M. arthritidis strains, 158p10p9 and H606, expressing two size variants of MAA2. Triton X-114 partitioning and metabolic labeling with...
