    Abstract: Provided herein are methods for using compositions that include a fusion protein having a YscF protein domain, a mature F1 protein domain, and a LcrV protein domain. In one embodiment the composition is used to confer immunity to plague, such as pneumonic plague, caused by Yersinia pestis. In one embodiment, the composition is administered to a mucosal surface, such as by an intranasal route. In one embodiment, the administration to a mucosal surface includes a vector that has a polynucleotide encoding a fusion protein, where the fusion protein includes a YscF protein domain, a mature F1 protein domain, and a LcrV protein domain. The administration is followed by a second administration by a different route, such as an intramuscular route. The second administration includes a fusion protein having the same three domains, and in one embodiment the fusion protein is the same one administered to a mucosal surface.

    Abstract: Provided herein is a genetically modified Y. pestis that includes three alterations compared to a control Y. pestis. Two alterations include decreased mRNA, decreased protein, or a combination thereof, encoded by a lpp coding region and encoded by a msbB coding region. The third alteration is selected from an alteration of an intergenic region between the coding regions ypo1119 and ypo1120, and decreased mRNA, decreased protein, or a combination thereof, encoded by a coding region selected from pla, ypol717, ypmt1.80c, rbsA (ypo2500), ypo0498, vasK (ypo3603), ypo3164, hxuB (ypo3248), ypo1616, ypo1119, ypo1120, and ail. Also provided are compositions that include the genetically modified Y. pestis, and methods of using the genetically modified Y. pestis.

    Abstract: Described herein are microorganisms that are modified so that they have an increased ability to be recognized by the innate immune system of a eukaryote, relative to an unmodified microorganism. A microorganism may be a gram-negative bacterium that has been modified to produce high potency lipopolysaccharide, e.g., Yersinia pestis expressing LpxL. Such modified microorganisms may be used as vaccines for protection against an infection by the unmodified microorganism. They may also be used as delivery vehicles of one or more heterologous antigens, e.g., antigens from pathogens or those associated with a hyperproliferative eukaryotic cell.

    Abstract translation: 这里描述的是相对于未修饰的微生物进行修饰以使得它们具有增强的真核生物免疫系统识别能力的微生物。 微生物可以是已被修饰以产生高效力脂多糖的革兰氏阴性细菌,例如表达LpxL的耶尔森氏菌。 这种修饰的微生物可以用作防止未经修饰的微生物感染的疫苗。 它们还可以用作一种或多种异源抗原的递送载体,例如来自病原体的抗原或与过度增殖的真核细胞相关的抗原。
