Plague virulence antigens from Yersinia enterocolitica

P B Carter et al. Infect Immun. 1980 May.

Abstract

The virulence of Yersinia enterocolitica, biotype 2, serotype O:8, in mice is related to its ability to produce plague V and W antigens. V and W antigens in Y. enterocolitica are shown to be immunologically identical to the previously described V and W antigens of Yersinia pestis and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis.
