  • Title: The mosaic of proteins synthesized by Salmonella typhimurium.
    Author: Barber C.
    Journal: Microbios; 1980; 29(116):89-94. PubMed ID: 6167838.
    Abstract:
    A profusion of proteins with heterologous serological specificities was synthesized by S. typhimurium grown on artificial media; accordingly, sera prepared in rabbits with these proteins displayed an abundance of antibodies reacting, in agar gel, against numerous heterologous proteins. the absorption of the sera with different Enterobacterial proteins proved that the S. typhimurium proteins are a mixture of specific proteins, and common E. coli and Salmonellae determinants; in addition, a group of strongly cross-precipitating proteins common to S. typhimurium and S. choleraesuis and to S. typhimurium and S. kentucky were identified that were not present in the proteins common to S. enteritidis, S. typhi and E. coli, or in the S. paratyphi A proteins used absorptions. The specific proteins of S. typhimurium were synthesized on artificial media in, apparently, smaller amounts than the common proteins; their role in the protection of mice against infection with their natural pathogen was, however, proof of their specificity and contrasted with the ineffectiveness, in protecting the mice, of the common proteins.
