Antigenic relationships among the rickettsiae of the spotted fever and typhus groups [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1991
Using immunoblots to analyze antigenic relationships among the pathogenic spotted fever and typhus group rickettsiae, I found that the rickettsial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was a group-specific antigen. All the rickettsiae examined had 135-kDa and 58-kDa protein antigens.
