chlamydia trachomatis is one of the main causes of sexually transmitted diseases (stds) such as prostatitis and epididymitis in men and cervicitis, endometriosis, vaginitis and ureogenital tract infections in women. serological tests with sensitivities related to specific antigens are commonly used as routine laboratory tests for diagnosis of chlamydia. in this research the chlamydia major o...
Chlamydial infection in koalas is common across the east coast of Australia and causes significant morbidity, infertility and mortality. An effective vaccine to prevent the adverse consequences of chlamydial infections in koalas (particularly blindness and infertility in females) would provide an important management tool to prevent further population decline of this species. An important step ...
Recombinant fragments of the major outer-membrane protein (MOMP) of Chlamydia trachomatis, expressed at high levels in Escherichia coli, were isolated and purified. Antisera to the recombinant proteins reacted preferentially with overlapping synthetic peptides covering the immunoaccessible variable segments of MOMP. These sera also reacted in a species-specific manner with the surface of intact...
The gene encoding the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) from Chlamydia trachomatis, serovar H was isolated from a genomic library using the MOMP gene from serovar L2 as the probe (1) . The recombinant insert was subcloned into a plasmid vector (Bluescript), the gene localized by Southern blotting and the nucleotide sequence was determined by the dideoxy chain termination method. The H MOMP ge...
Effective adjuvants are needed to design effective vaccines against Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct). The aim of this study was to observe the immune response stimulated by inoculation of a DNA vaccine encoding a fusion protein comprising multiple Ct major outer membrane protein (MOMP) epitopes and human papillomavirus 6b L1 (HPV 6b L1) as the basis for designing a novel DNA vaccine against genital C...
The Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein (MOMP) is the quantitatively predominant surface protein which has important functional, structural and antigenic properties. We have cloned and overexpressed the MOMP in Escherichia coli. The MOMP is surface exposed in C. trachomatis and capable of eliciting protective antibodies in infected hosts, and therefore has potential as a candidat...
The principal surface protein antigen of Chlamydia trachomatis is the major outer membrane protein (MOMP). The MOMP is antigenically complex. Among the 15 serovars of C. trachomatis, mAbs define serovar-, subspecies-, and species-specific determinants on MOMP. The molecular basis of the antigenic diversity of these proteins is reflected in amino acid variable sequence domains. We have mapped th...
We evaluated the immunogenicity and efficacy of a candidate vaccine comprising the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) multi-epitope of Chlamydia trachomatis. A short gene of multi-epitope derived from MOMP containing multiple T- and B-cell epitopes was artificially synthesized. The recombinant plasmid pET32a(+) containing codon optimized MOMP multi-epitope gene was constructed. Expression of t...
BACKGROUND Generation of robust cell-mediated immune responses at mucosal surfaces while reducing overall inflammation is a primary goal for vaccination. Here we report the use of a recombinant nanoparticle as a vaccine delivery platform against mucosal infections requiring T cell-mediated immunity for eradication. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We encapsulated an immunogenic protein, the maj...
Chlamydia trachomatis is an important human pathogen. Research to develop a Chlamydia vaccine has focused on the major outer membrane protein (MOMP). Determinants of this protein elicit serovar-specific neutralizing antibodies which are thought to play a critical role in protective immunity. MOMP-specific antibody responses are highly variable in the polymorphic population. Genetic factors whic...
