Abstract
Three iromps (iron-regulated outer membrane proteins) of Aeromonas salmonicida were identified by the use of specific antibodies together with Southern hybridization analysis and limited nucleotide sequencing of their genes. The results of these experiments together with a search of the international database for homologous sequences led to their identification as follows:
-86 kDa iromp (FstA) as a Vibrio anguillarum Fat A homologue
-82 kDa iromp (FepA) as an Escherichia coli FepA homologue
-74 kDa iromp (IrpA) as an Escherichia coli Cir homologue.
