Immunodominant extracellular loops of Treponema pallidum FadL outer membrane proteins elicit antibodies with opsonic and growth-inhibitory activities

Kristina N. Delgado, Melissa J. Caimano, Isabel C. Orbe, Crystal F. Vicente, Carson J. La Vake, André Alex Grassmann, Michael Anthony Moody, Justin David Radolf, Kelly L. Hawley

The paper identifies immunodominant extracellular loops (ECLs) from Treponema pallidum FadL proteins that elicit antibodies with opsonic and growth-inhibitory activities against syphilis-causing spirochetes.
