Abstract:
The protein X of Steptococcus agalactiae is a surface antigen included in the typing scheme of group B streptococci (GBS). We have developed a monoclonal antibody to the protein X and used it to purify this antigen by affinity chromatography. Electrophoresis in polyacrylamide, and immunoblotting using the monoclonal antibody or a rabbit antiserum raised with the affinity purified protein X, revealed a major band in the region of 200 kDa and a smaller one at 100 kDa. The isolated protein X will make possible investigations of its potential role in virulence and protection.
