Disclosed herein are various open reading frames from a strain of E. coli responsible for neonatal meningitis (MNEC), and a subset of these that is of particular interest for preparing compositions for immunising against MNEC infections.

摘要:
Disclosed herein are various polypeptides that can be included in immunogenic compositions specific for pathogenic E. coli strains. The polypeptides have cellular locations which render them accessible to the immune system. The genes encoding the polypeptides were initially identified as being present in uropathogenic strain 536 but absent from non-pathogenic strains.

Variants of the pathogenic E. coli ‘AcfD precursor’ have been identified with increased solubility as compared to the native AcfD protein that raise a substantially similar immune response in a subject as the native AcfD protein.

The invention provides proteins from gonococcus (Neisseria gonorrhoeae), including amino acid sequences, the corresponding nucleotide sequences, expression data, and serological data. The proteins are useful antigens for vaccines, immunogenic compositions, and/or diagnostics. They are also useful for distinguishing between gonococcus and meningococcus and, in particular, between gonococcus and serogroup B meningococcus.

摘要:
N. gonorrhoeae is a bacterial pathogen which causes diseases including gonorrhoea, urethritis, cervicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. In addition, like other inflammatory SYDs, infection is believed to enhance HIV transmission. Within the many proteins of the gonococcal *enome, six have been found to be particularly suitable for immunisation purposes, particularly', when used in combinations. The invention therefore provides a composition comprising two or more of the following antigens: (1) OmpA; (2) OmpH; (3) PPIase; (4) ngs41; (5) ngsl 17; and (6)', App.
