Nucleotide sequence of the major outer membrane protein gene from Chlamydia trachomatis serovar H

The gene encoding the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) from Chlamydia trachomatis , serovar H was isolated from a genomic library using the MOMP gene from serovar L2 as the probe. The H MOMP gene is 1193 bp long and encodes a polypeptide of 397 amino acids including a 22 amino acid leader sequenc...

More Information
Summary:The gene encoding the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) from Chlamydia trachomatis , serovar H was isolated from a genomic library using the MOMP gene from serovar L2 as the probe. The H MOMP gene is 1193 bp long and encodes a polypeptide of 397 amino acids including a 22 amino acid leader sequence. This corresponds to a mature H MOMP of 40,672 daltons, in agreement with the molecular mass predicted by SDS-PAGE.
