Appearance of a Protein “Agglutinin” on the Spheroplast Membrane of Pneumococci During Induction of Competence
AUTOR(ES)
Tomasz, Alexander
RESUMO
Competent pneumococci and their spheroplasts agglutinate in dilute acid. Agglutination is caused by a trypsin-sensitive agglutinin which is not identical to the competence factor and the appearance of which requires protein synthesis.
