Localization of enterobacterial common antigen: Proteus mirabilis and its various L-forms

J Rinno et al. J Bacteriol. 1980 Feb.

Abstract

An investigation of Proteus mirabilis wild-type strains and their various derived L-forms shows that the enterobacterial common antigen (ECA) is localized in the outer membrane of the cell envelope of these strains. In strains where the outer membrane is lacking (stable protoplast L-forms) or where its amount is reduced (spheroplast UL19) no ECA or only reduced amounts of it are detected by serological tests or by ferritin-labeling techniques.
