Abstract
A genetic construct containing a coding region for exoenzyme S activity from Pseudomonas aeruginosa is disclosed. A essentially pure protein preparation of the 49 kDa form of exoenzyme S is also disclosed. The protein product of the genetic construct may be used to modify the RAS protein function in mammalian carcinomas, used as a vaccine, or used to diagnose Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.
