Evaluation of the Protective Ability of the Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum Tp0126 OmpW Homolog in the Rabbit Model of Syphilis

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 2019
In silico analyses of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum genomes and predicted proteomes to search for homologs of known bacterial outer membrane proteins (OMPs) led to the identification of tp0126 as a gene encoding a putative member of the OmpW family ...

Urea-mediated dissociation alleviate the false-positive Treponema pallidum-specific antibodies detected by ELISA

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The serological detection of antibodies to Treponema pallidum is essential to the diagnosis of syphilis. However, for the presence of cross-reaction, the specific antibody tests [e.g., enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)] always have false-positive

Fe(3+)-eta(2)-peroxo species in superoxide reductase from Treponema pallidum. Comparison with Desulfoarculus baarsii. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
International audienceSuperoxide reductases (SORs) are superoxide (O2-)-detoxifying enzymes that catalyse the reduction of O2- into hydrogen peroxide. Three different classes of SOR have been reported on the basis of the presence or not of an additional ...
