  • In culture supematants of both Listeria ivanovii and Listeria monocytogenes Sv4b, for the first time a hemolysin of molecular weight 58 kDa was identified, which had all the characteristics of an SH-activated cytolysin, and which was therefore identified as Iisteriolysin 0 (LLO). In the case of L. ivanovii a second major supematant protein of molecular weight 24 kDa co-purified with LLO. However, the function of this protein has to be determined. In culture supematants of L. ivanovii a sphingomyelinase and a Iecithinase activity could beIn culture supematants of both Listeria ivanovii and Listeria monocytogenes Sv4b, for the first time a hemolysin of molecular weight 58 kDa was identified, which had all the characteristics of an SH-activated cytolysin, and which was therefore identified as Iisteriolysin 0 (LLO). In the case of L. ivanovii a second major supematant protein of molecular weight 24 kDa co-purified with LLO. However, the function of this protein has to be determined. In culture supematants of L. ivanovii a sphingomyelinase and a Iecithinase activity could be detected, both enzymatic activities together contributing to the pronounced hemolysis caused by L. ivanovii. The N-tenninal amino acid sequences of LLO and the 24 kDa from L. ivanovii are shown.show moreshow less
