title: Legiolysin, a new hemolysin from L. pneumophila.
abstract: Legionella pneumophila generates exotoxins, cytolysins, proteases or hemolysins that damage host cells like erythrocytes or tissue culture cells. The gene for a new L. pneumophila hemolysin without a proteolytic activity was identified, cloned in E. coli and sequenced. The gene product was analysed by SDS-Polyacrylamide-gel-electrophoresis.
