Ot. Mozharov et al., PHENOTYPIC-EXPRESSION OF THE CA2-DEPENDE NCE TRAIT IN RECOMBINANT CELLS OF YERSINIA-PESTIS (LEHMANN, NEUMANN)(), Genetika, 32(9), 1996, pp. 1176-1183
A conceptual model of the Yersinia pestis Ca2+-dependence mechanism is
proposed. The model is based on data from analyses of peculiarities o
f recombinant cells of this plague-causing agent carrying the cloned f
irst BglII fragment of the Ca2+-dependence plasmid (pCaD) and a combin
ation of this fragment and other plasmid pCaD fragments. The data obta
ined also allowed a revision of the role of the Icr GVH locus of pCaD
in this phenomenon.
