Genetic and biochemical analyses of protein II
Abstract
We compared the structure of P.II proteins of gonococcal strain FA1090 by N-terminal sequence analysis of purified proteins and by DNA sequencing of cloned P.II genes. Regulation of P.II gene expression does not involve major DNA rearrangements, but may involve generation of frame-shifts in unexpressed P.II genes. There are probably 8 or 9 P.II genes, each possessing a common leader sequence, in the gonococcal chromosome.
