A genomic expression library of Streptococcus
pneumoniae was screened with a convalescent-phase serum for
immunoreactive proteins. Six known and 17 unknown pneumococcal proteins
were detected. Five of the known proteins were surface-located
virulence factors, and eight of the unknown proteins were putative
membrane proteins.
