Immunoprofiling of Chlamydia trachomatis using whole-proteome microarrays generated by on-chip in situ expression
Abstract Using Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) as a complex model organism, we describe a method to generate bacterial whole-proteome microarrays using cell-free, on-chip protein expression. Expression constructs were generated by two successive PCRs directly from bacterial genomic DNA. Bacterial protein...
