Evaluation of the conserved subunit of the pathogenic Leptospira FlaB protein-based immunochromatographic test for the diagnosis of acute leptospirosis
{{output}}
We have computationally identified a conserved region of flagellin B (FlaB) protein that is present only in pathogenic Leptospira but absent in non-pathogenic Leptospira or other flagellated bacteria. The predicted FlaB subunit protein (sFlaB) comprised a sequ... ...
