Association of Campylobacter jejuni Cj0859c Gene (fspA) Variants with Different C. jejuni Multilocus Sequence Types

摘要

Cj0859c variants fspA1 and fspA2 from 669 human, poultry, and bovine Campylobacter jejuni strains were associated with certain hosts and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) types. Among the human and poultry strains, fspA1 was significantly (P fspA2. FspA2 amino acid sequences were the most diverse and were often truncated.
