The vaa locus of Mycoplasma hominis contains a divergent genetic islet encoding a putative membrane protein
BACKGROUND: The Mycoplasma hominis vaa gene encodes a highly variable, surface antigen involved in the adhesion to host cells. We have analysed the structure of the vaa locus to elucidate the genetic basis for variation of vaa. RESULTS: Mapping of vaa on existing physical maps of five M. hominis iso...
