Abstract: | An immunochemical investigation has been made of the culture liquid after the cultivation of ten strains of the microorganisms Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. It has been shown that in the process of vital activity all the strains investigated, to a greater or smaller degree, produce into the culture medium products of catabolic breakdown consisting of fragments of receptor proteins which are possibly, regulators of metabolic processes taking place under the influence of the constantly changing conditions of the growth medium.Pacific Ocean Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, Far Eastern Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Vladivostok.
