abstract：:The cysteine-rich envelope proteins of the elementary body form of chlamydiae are thought to be located in the outer membrane on the basis of their insolubility in the weak anionic detergent N-lauryl sarcosinate (Sarkosyl). We found, however, that the insolubility of the small (EnvA) and the large (EnvB) cysteine-rich...
