Identification of a peptide from mammal albumins responsible for enhanced pigment production by group B streptococci. Clin. Diagn. Lab. Immunol. 1999 ; 6(3):425-61071-412Xhttp://hdl.handle.net/10668/2211Journal Article; Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't;The peptide from peptones responsible for enhanced pigment production by Streptococcus agalactiae in culture media has been isolated from a peptic digest of human albumin and has been identified as Ile-Ala-Arg-Arg-His-Pro-Tyr-Phe. The related heptapeptide lacking the N-terminal Ile also had pigment-enhancing activity. A sequence similarity search showed that these sequences are present only in mammal albumins.enBovinosMedios de cultivoHumanosOligopéptidosPigmentos biológicosAlbúmina séricaAnimalesInfecciones estreptocócicasMedical Subject Headings::Organisms::Eukaryota::Animals::Chordata::Vertebrates::Mammals::Artiodactyla::Ruminants::CattleMedical Subject Headings::Analytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and Equipment::Equipment and Supplies::Culture MediaMedical Subject Headings::Organisms::Eukaryota::Animals::Chordata::Vertebrates::Mammals::Primates::Haplorhini::Catarrhini::Hominidae::HumansMedical Subject Headings::Chemicals and Drugs::Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins::Peptides::OligopeptidesMedical Subject Headings::Chemicals and Drugs::Biological Factors::Pigments, BiologicalMedical Subject Headings::Diseases::Bacterial Infections and Mycoses::Bacterial Infections::Gram-Positive Bacterial Infections::Streptococcal InfectionsMedical Subject Headings::Organisms::Bacteria::Gram-Positive Bacteria::Gram-Positive Cocci::Streptococcaceae::Streptococcus::Streptococcus agalactiaeMedical Subject Headings::Organisms::Eukaryota::AnimalsMedical Subject Headings::Chemicals and Drugs::Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins::Proteins::Albumins::Serum Albuminresearch article10225848open access1098-6588PMC103735
