Anabolic potential of virulent Treponema pallidum
Infection and Immunity
|December 1, 1977
Abstract:
Acrylamide gel autoradiography of 3H-labeled proteins from Treponema pallidum demonstrates that virulent treponemes incubated in vitro synthesize a spectrum of high-molecular-weight proteins. A comparison of the protein profiles of T. pallidum with the Reiter treponeme shows that T. pallidum possesses significant anabolic competence.
