Immunogenic Outer membrane Proteins (Omps) of Salmonella: Potential Candidate for sub-unit vaccine
نویسندگان
چکیده
The outer membrane is a continuous structure on the surface of Gram-negative bacteria and has particular significance as one of the potential targets for protective immunity. Recent studies have focused attention on the outer membrane proteins (OMPs) suggesting the existence of protective immunogenic components in Salmonella. Outer membrane protein (OMPs) has been reported to be immunogens for eliciting active/protective immunity against Salmonella and thus, have great potential for use in vaccination. OMPs have been investigated as potential vaccine candidates, virulence factors and these surface exposed proteins play a critical role in pathogenic processes such as motility, adherence and colonisation of the host cells, injection of toxins and cellular proteases, as well as the formation of channels for the removal of antibiotics (antibiotic resistance).

Proteomic analysis of outer membrane proteins in Salmonella enterica Enteritidis.
Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis is the predominant agent causing salmonellosis in chickens and other domestic animals. In an attempt to identify antigenic S. Enteritidis outer membrane proteins (OMPs) that may be useful for subunit vaccine development, we established a proteomic map and database of antigenic S. Enteritidis OMPs. In total, 351 and 301 spots respectively from S. Enteritid...

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a major virulence factor present in the outer membrane of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium). Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) from Salmonella show high immunogenicity and provide protection against Salmonella infection, and truncated LPS alters the outer membrane composition of the cell wall. In our previous study, we demonstrated that Salmonella...

Outer membrane protein antigens usually have strong immunogenicities, closely interact with the immune system and play a significant role in the development of new vaccines. The outer membrane proteins of Salmonella paratyphi A (S. paratyphi A) were screened for immunogenicity and immunoprotection for potential vaccine targets. In this study, the ...

In Silico Studies of Outer Membrane of Neisseria Meningitidis PorA: Its Expression and Immunogenic Properties
Neisseria meningitidis is a major causative agent of bacterial septicemia and meningitis in humans. Currently, there are no vaccines to prevent disease caused by strains of N.meningitidis serogroup B. The Class 1 Outer Membrane Protein (OMP) has been named porA which is a cation selective transmembrane protein of 45 KDa that forms trimeric pore in the meningococcal outer membrane. PorA from ser...
