Purification of a Mycoplasma pneumoniae adhesin by monoclonal antibody affinity chromatography.
A 165,000-dalton surface protein of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, designated protein P1, appears to be the major attachment ligand of the pathogen. We employed monoclonal antibody affinity chromatography to obtain purified protein P1.
