Purification and characterization of a membrane glycoprotein from the fish pathogen Flavobacterium psychrophilum

摘要

Aims: The cell envelope of the fish pathogen Flavobacterium psychrophilum contains more than 50 polypeptides resolved by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylaminde gel electrophoresis analysis including a major component named P60. Here, we have developed a simple and efficient procedure for the purification of P60 and therefore permitting its biochemical characterization.
