  • Title: Antigenic relatedness and partial amino acid sequences of pili of Escherichia coli serotypes O1, O2, and O78 pathogenic to poultry.
    Author: Suwanichkul A, Panigrahy B, Wagner RM.
    Journal: Avian Dis; 1987; 31(4):809-13. PubMed ID: 2894825.
    Abstract:
    Pilus proteins from Escherichia coli serotypes O1, O2, and O78 pathogenic to poultry were compared with regard to their antigenic relatedness and partial amino acid sequences. Agglutination, immunodiffusion, and immunoblot assays with polyclonal antibodies to these pili showed that these pili not only share some common antigens but also contain antigens unique to each pilus. The partial amino-terminal amino acid sequences support our earlier findings that the pili are different but contain some structural homologies.
