Immunological relationship among glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases in the genera Enterobacter and Escherichia

Abstract

The comparative immunological study of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-3-PDH) among Enterobacteriaceae carried out with an anti-Enterobacter cloacae G-3-PDH serum pointed out the large heterogeneity of the genera Enterobacter and Escherichia. The use of two-dimensional maps integrating our new data and previously acquired quantitative data confirmed these results.
