In silico Analysis and Modeling of ACP-MIP–PilQ Chimeric Antigen from Neisseria meningitidis Serogroup B
Background: Neisseria meningitidis, a life-threatening human pathogen with the potential to cause large epidemics, can be isolated from the nasopharynx of 5–15% of adults. The aim of the current study was to evaluate biophysical and biochemical properties and immunological aspects of chimeric acyl-carrier protein-macrophage infectivity potentiator protein-type IV pilus biogenesis protein ...

متن کاملA new serogroup (L) of Neisseria meningitidis.
A strain of neisseria meningitidis (LCDC 78189) isolated from the mother of a 3-year-old male with meningococcal meningitis was found to be antigenically distinct from the known serogroups A, B, C, D, H, I, K, X, Y, Z, 29E, and W135; it was designated serogroup L. Anti-78189 serum specifically agglutinated the homologous strain and three other strains which were isolated from the father and two...
متن کاملStudy of various presentation forms for a peptide mimetic of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B capsular polysaccharide.
The formulation of a broadly protective vaccine to prevent the serogroup B Neisseria meningitidis (MenB) disease is still an unmet medical need. We have previously reported the induction of bactericidal and protective antibodies against MenB after immunization of mice with a phage-displayed peptide named 4 L-5. This peptide mimics a capsular polysaccharide (CPS) epitope in MenB. With the aim of...
