Detection of membrane-bound proteases of Francisella tularensis

Sterile preparations of membrane fractions were prepared by processing of live Francisella tularensis cells of different subspecies with 4.5 M urea solution and differential centrifugation. For the first time, proteolytic activity was detected and studied by tests of radial enzyme diffusion and subs...
