Proteins of two V. cholerae serogroup O139 strains, two El Tor biotype epidemic strains, one O22 strain, and one O155 strain were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) ; the silver stained 2-DE gels were scanned with (ligital lmageScanner and analyzed with lmageMaster 2D Elite 3.10 software. Similarities of protein maps between these strains were analyzed. The two O139 strains had 86% proteins in common; the two El Tor biotype epidemie strains showed 84% proteins in common; O139 strains shared 67 % , 47 % and 45 % proteins with El Tor biotype epidemic strains, O22 and O 155 strains respectively. Although the proteome of O 139 strains have close similarity to that of El Tor biotype epidemic strains, great disparities exist. O139 strains may not originate from El Tor biotype directly, and a transition strain may exist.展开更多
