Sequence Variation of Rare Outer Membrane Protein β-Barrel Domains in Clinical Strains Provides Insights into the Evolution of <italic toggle="yes">Treponema pallidum</italic> subsp. <italic toggle="yes">pallidum</italic>, the Syphilis Spirochete

ABSTRACT In recent years, considerable progress has been made in topologically and functionally characterizing integral outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum, the syphilis spirochete, and identifying its surface-exposed β-barrel domains. Extracellular loops in OMPs...
