Serology of the soluble antigens of Clostridium perfringens types A-F by agar-gel diffusion.

Abstract:

:Ellner, Paul D. (University of Vermont, Burlington) and Carolyn D. Bohan. Serology of the soluble antigens of Clostridium perfringens types A-F by agar-gel diffusion. J. Bacteriol. 83:284-296. 1962.-A serological study by agar-gel diffusion of the soluble antigens of 39 strains of the Clostridium perfringens group has shown them to be extremely heterogeneous. Strain variation occurred within the six types, and common antigens shared among the six types were frequently observed. Attempts to produce type-specific sera by absorption were unsuccessful, due to incomplete removal of common antibodies.

  • Identification of an N-terminal region of sigma 54 required for enhancer responsiveness.

    abstract::Sigma 54 associates with bacterial core RNA polymerase and converts it into an enhancer-responsive enzyme. Deletion of the N-terminal 40 amino acids is known to result in loss of the ability to respond to enhancer binding proteins. In this work PCR mutagenesis and genetic screens were used to identify a small patch, f...
