NUCLEOTIDE-SEQUENCE OF THE PAPA-GENE ENCODING THE PAP PILUS SUBUNIT OF HUMAN UROPATHOGENIC ESCHERICHIA-COLI JOURNAL OF BACTERIOLOGY BAGA, M., Normark, S., Hardy, J., OHANLEY, P., LARK, D., Olsson, O., SCHOOLNIK, G., FALKOW, S. 1984; 157 (1): 330-333

Abstract

The papA gene of the uropathogenic strain Escherichia coli J96, coding for the Pap pili subunit, was subjected to DNA sequencing, and found to code for an 185-amino acid-long polypeptide with a 22-amino acid-long signal peptide. Here we present the primary sequence, the hydrophilicity profile, and the predicted polypeptide secondary structure of the Pap pili subunit.
