Abstract
The molecular cloning and nucleotide sequence of the complete structural gene encoding Mycoplasma pneumoniae P1 cytadhesin and the amino acid sequence of the protein is described. The present invention provides recombinant DNA clones encoding the complete P1 protein as well as clones expressing P1 polypeptides with cytadhesin epitopes. The substantially purified nucleic acid molecules, recombinant vectors, recombinant cells, and recombinant polypeptides of the present invention are useful as hybridization probes and immunodiagnostic reagents and may be used to prepare anti-mycoplasmal vaccines.
