Anti-Listeria sp. p60, clone P6017

Recognizes L. monocytogenes p60 protein. Weakly cross-reacts with other Listeria species (L. innocua, L. ivanovii). Liquid. 0.2µm-filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4. Contains no preservatives. Listeria monocytogenes is a intracellular bacterium that is the causative agent of Listeriosis. It is one of the most virulent foodborne pathogens. Listeria species are known to secrete a 60-kDa protein collectively termed p60, which is encoded by the iap (invasion-associated-protein) gene and secreted in large quantites into the growth media. p60 is a highly immunogenic murein hydrolase that is essential for cell division.
