title: Nucleotide sequence of DNA encoding the major outer membrane protein of Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L3.
abstract: DNA encoding the major outer membrane protein of Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L3 was sequenced following amplification by the polymerase chain reaction. A comparison with the deduced amino acid (aa) sequence of the C. trachomatis serovar L2 showed that the L3 had three extra aa and 55 aa substitutions.
