Outer membrane protein A (OmpA) of Shigella flexneri 2a, induces protective immune response in a mouse model.

BACKGROUND: In our earlier studies 34 kDa outer membrane protein (OMP) of Shigella flexneri 2a has been identified as an efficient immunostimulant. KEY RESULTS: In the present study MALDI-TOF MS analysis of the purified 34 kDa OMP of Shigella flexneri 2a shows considerable sequence homology (Identit...
