Processing of Chlamydia abortus polymorphic membrane protein 18D during the chlamydial developmental cycle.

Processing of Chlamydia abortus polymorphic membrane protein 18D during the chlamydial developmental cycle.

Chlamydia possess a unique family of autotransporter proteins known as the Polymorphic membrane proteins (Pmps). While the total number of pmp genes varies between Chlamydia species, all encode a single pmpD gene. In both Chlamydia trachomatis (C. trachomatis) and C. pneumoniae, the PmpD protein is...
