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.
