Characterization of a novel structural member, LukE‐LukD, of the bi‐component staphylococcal leucotoxins family

2 Oct 1998

Abstract excerpt

A new member of the staphylococcal bi-component leucotoxins family, LukE (32 kDa) and LukD (34.3 kDa) has been characterized from Staphylococcus aureus strain Newman. LukE was 58-68% identical with the class S proteins, whereas LukD was 71-77% identical with the class F proteins of the family. A partial immunoreactivity with the various affinity-purified antibodies specific for the other proteins was observed....
