The present invention is related to nucleic acids coding for adhesion factors of group B streptococcus, adhesion factors of group B streptococcus and uses thereof. More particularly, the present invention is related to a polypeptide being such adhesion factors and comprising an amino acid sequence, whereby the amino acid sequence is selected from the group comprising SEQ ID NO 11 to SEQ ID NO 20, and the use of such polypeptide for the manufacture of a vaccine.
摘要:
Described is a method for isolating Hepatitis C Virus peptides (HPs) which have a binding capacity to a MHC/HLA molecule or a complex comprising said HCV-peptide and said MHC/HLA molecule characterized by the following steps: - providing a pool of HCV-peptide, said pool containing HCV-peptides which bind to said MHC/HLA molecules and HCV-peptides which do not bind to said MHC/HLA molecule, -contacting said MHC/HLA molecule with said pool of HCV-peptides whereby a HCV-peptide which has a binding capacity to said MHC/HLA molecule binds to said MHC/HLA molecule and a complex comprising said HCV-peptide and said MHC/HLA molecule is formed, -detecting and optionally separating said complex from the HCV-peptide which do not bind to said MHC/HLA molecule and optionally isolating and characterising the HCV-peptide from said complex.
摘要:
The present invention relates to isolated nucleic acid molecules which encode an antigen from a Chlamydia species, a vector which comprises such nucleic acid molecule, and a host cell comprising such vector. Furthermore, the invention provides antigens from a Chlamydia species, as well as fragments and variants thereof, a process for producing such antigens, and a process for producing a cell, which expresses such antigen. More specifically such antigens are produced by or associated with bacterial infections caused by Chlamydia pneumoniae. Moreover, the present invention provides antibodies binding to such antigen, a hybridoma cell producing such antibodies, methods for producing such antibodies, a pharmaceutical composition comprising such nucleic acid molecule, antigen, vector or antibody, the use of such nucleic acid molecule, antigen, vector or antibody for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition, methods for identifying an antagonist capable of binding such antigen or of reducing or inhibiting the interaction activity of such antigen, methods for diagnosing an infection with Chlamydia and methods for the treatment or prevention of an infection with Chlamydia.
