Primary sequence of the alpha-toxin gene from Staphylococcus aureus wood 46

Open access

Abstract

The complete DNA sequence of a cloned alpha-toxin gene from Staphylococcus aureus was determined. The amino acid sequence of the alpha-toxin protein, predicted from the DNA sequence, was described and compared with published data. The primary product of the cloned alpha-toxin gene contained a 26-amino-acid leader sequence which possessed characteristic features of a signal sequence involved in secretion. The mature alpha-toxin protein had a molecular size of 33,000 and contained only three short regions of high hydrophobicity in addition to a number of short, weakly hydrophobic regions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
