Current study results from the report, 'Cloning and molecular characterization of outer membrane protein A (ompA) gene from Mycobacterium bovis,' have been published. According to recent research published in the journal Microbiology and Immunology, "The ompA gene, 981 bp in size and identified in the Mycobacterium bovis genome, was cloned and sequenced. Predicted amino acid sequences showed a protein of molecular weight 33.5 kDa with an isoelectric point of 7.28 and an OmpA conserved domain at the carboxy terminal with signal sequence at the N-terminal." "Homology search showed complete homology with the Mycobacterium tuberculosis ompA gene with...
