Characterization of Three Novel Adhesins of Leptospira interrogans [PDF]
The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2013 We report cloning, expression, purification, and characterization of three predicted leptospiral membrane proteins (LIC11360, LIC11009, and LIC11975). In silico analysis and proteinase K accessibility data suggest that these proteins might be surface exposed.

Unique organization of Leptospira interrogans rRNA genes [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1989 We cloned Sau3AI fragments containing the rRNA genes for Leptospira interrogans serovar canicola strain Moulton in the BamHI site of lambda EMBL3 bacteriophage DNA. Physical maps of the fragments were constructed, and the locations of the rRNA genes were determined by Southern blot hybridization and S1 protection.

Genome features of Leptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004 We report novel features of the genome sequence of Leptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni, a highly invasive spirochete. Leptospira species colonize a significant proportion of rodent populations worldwide and produce life-threatening infections in mammals.

Identification of Cell-Binding Adhesins of Leptospira interrogans [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014 Leptospirosis is a globally distributed bacterial infectious disease caused by pathogenic members of the genus Leptospira. Infection can lead to illness ranging from mild and non-specific to severe, with jaundice, kidney and liver dysfunction, and widespread endothelial damage.
