ABSTRACT:
Mycobacterium proteins, in particular those of M. bovis, having molecular weights between approximately 44.5 and 47.5 kD. These proteins can have molecular weights of approximately 45 kD or 47 kD and isoelectric pH of approximately 3.7 (45 and 47 kD proteins) and 3.9 (47 kD proteins).
These proteins or hybrid proteins containing a part of their sequences can be used as vaccines or as drugs, or for the detection and monitoring of tuberculosis in particular in man and in cattle.
