Abstract:
1. An isolated polynucleotide encoding a full length Ducreyi Serum Resistance A protein (DsrA), the polynucleotide selected from the group consisting of: (a) DNA having the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1; (b) a polynucleotide that hybridizes to the DNA of (a) above under stringent conditions by a wash stringency of 50% Formamide with 5× Denhardt's solution, 0.5% SDS and 1× SSPE at 42° C. and which encodes a full length DrsA; and (c) a polynucleotide that differs from the DNA of (a) above due to the degeneracy of the genetic code and that encodes a full length DsrA.
