Mimotopes of the Vi antigen of Salmonella enterica serovar typhi identified from phage display peptide library.
The capsular polysaccharide Vi antigen (ViCPS) is an essential virulence factor and also a protective antigen of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi. A random 12-mer phage-displayed peptide library was used to identify mimotopes (epitope analogues) of this antigen by panning against a ViCPS-specific monoclonal antibody (MAb) ATVi. Approximately 75% of the phage clones selected in the fourth round...
متن کاملMimotopes of heat shock proteins of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi identified from phage-displayed peptide library.
BACKGROUND Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi), the causative agent of typhoid fever. The objective of this study was to apply a phage display library to identify mimotopes of two HSPs, HSP90 and DnaK in S. Typhi. METHODOLOGY A 12-mer random peptide library expressed on the surface of the filamentous phage, M1...
متن کاملCapsular Vi polysaccharide antigen in Salmonella enterica serovar typhi isolates.
Characterization of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhi isolates for their Vi capsular polysaccharide antigen-related genetic sequences is desirable to define the role of isolates lacking such sequences in differential replication at unusual sites, including those coinfected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Infection with Vi-negative strains might produce typhoid fever among those immuniz...
متن کاملImmunoprotectivity of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis virulence protein, InvH, against Salmonella typhi
Objective(s):Typhoid fever is a dreadful disease of a major threat to public health in developing countries. Vaccination with bacterial immunodominant components such as surface proteins may prove as a potent alternative to live attenuated vaccines. InvH, an important part of needle complex in type three secretion system (TTSS) plays important role in efficient bacterial adherence and entry int...
متن کاملThe genome of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi.
The generation of complete genome sequences provides a blueprint that facilitates the genetic characterization of pathogens and their hosts. The genome of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) harbors ~5 million base pairs encoding some 4000 genes, of which >200 are functionally inactive. Comparison of S. Typhi isolates from around the world indicates that they are highly related (clonal...
