Abstract
The present invention is directed to Listeria monocytogenes specific protein that is encoded by nucleotide sequence of FIG. 1, the complementary sequence of which hybridizes to the nucleotide sequence of FIG. 1 at 5-6x SSC and 42.degree.-60.degree. C. A Listeria monocytogenes specific protein is also described having an amino aicd sequence as set forth in FIGS. 1A-1D. The proteins are suitable for the production of antibodies against Listeria monocytogenes.
Claims5
An isolated Listeria monocytogenes protein, having an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of amino acid sequence I, amino acid sequence II and amino acid sequence III, as set forth in FIG. 1, said protein being restricted to Listeria monocytogenes.
