본 연구에서는 병원성 Pasteurella multocida D:4 외막 단백질 H의 방어적 면역성과 백신으로서의 가능성을 검정하고자, 외막 단백질 H 유전자를 대장균에서 발현, Trx와 융합된 형태의 재조합 외막 단백질 H를 분리하여 면역화와 백신 실험에 항원으로 사용하였다. 면역 실험에서 재조합 외막 단백질 H는 높은 역가의 항체를 유도하였으며, 불활화한 사균 백신과 유사한 수준의 백신 효과를 나타내었다.

Pasteurella multocida, a Gram-negative facultative anaerobic bacterium, is a causative animal pathogen in porcine atrophic rhinitis and avian fowl cholera. For the development of recombinant subunit vaccine against P. multocida, we cloned and analyzed the gene for outer membrane protein H (ompH) from a native strain of Pasteurella multocida in Korea. The OmpH had significant similarity in both primary and secondary structure with those of other serotypes. The full-length, and three short fragments of ompH were expressed in E. coli and the recombinant OmpH proteins were purified, respectively. The recombinant OmpH proteins were antigenic and detectable with antisera produced by either immunization of commercial vaccine for respiratory disease or formalin-killed cell. Antibodies raised against the full-length OmpH provided strong protection against P. multocida, however, three short fragments of recombinant OmpHs, respectively, showed slightly lower protection in mice challenge. The recombinant OmpH might be a useful vaccine candidate antigen for P. multocida.

Pasteurella multocida는 돼지에서 위축성 비염, 폐렴을 비롯한 다양한 호흡기 질환을 일으키는 병원균이다. 본 연구에서는 돼지 위축성 비염에 대한 효과적인 순수정제 백신을 개발하고자 하는 기초 연구로서 P. multocida의 외막 단백질 H에 의해 유도되는 방어적 항체와 면역을 확인하였다. P. multocida의 외막 단백질을 포함하는 분획은 호흡기 질병 혼합 백신에 대한 항혈청과 불활화된 사균 세포에 대한 항혈청 모두에서 면역학적으로 검출 가능하였다. 선행 연구에서 분리한 외막 단백질 H 유전자는 재조합 발현 백터 제작에 이용되어 대장균으로부터 재조합 외막단백질 H를 정제하였다. 실험 동물 면역과 항혈청의 교차반응, ELISA를 통한 항체 역가의 측정 및 공격접종을 통하여, 재조합 외막 단백질 H는 높은항원성을 가지며, 지속적인 체액성 면역을 유도하는 것을 확인하였다. 외막 단백질 H는 순수정제 항원으로서 P. multocida에 의한 호흡기 질환에 대한 효과적인 방어를 유도할 수 있는 단위 백신 후보 단백질로 여겨진다.

A native strain of Pasteurella multocida was isolated from pigs suffering from severe atrophic rhinitis at domestic farms in Gyeonggi Province, Korea, and was identified as capsular serogroup 'D' and somatic serotype '4' by disc diffusion decapsulation and gel diffusion precipitation tests, respectively. The P. multocida (D:4) induced atrophic rhinitis in healthy pigs by the secondary infection. The gene for outer membrane protein H (ompH) of P. multocida (D:4) was cloned in Escherichia coli DH5$\alpha$ by PCR. The open reading frame of the ompH was composed of 1,023 bp, possibly encoding a protein with 341 amino acid residues containing a signal peptide of 20 amino acids at N-terminus, and the gene product with molecular mass of ca. 38 kDa was identified by SDS-PAGE. Hydropathy profiles indicated that there are two variable domains in the OmpH. To express the ompH in E. coli, the gene was manipulated in various ways. Expression of the truncated as well as full-length forms of the recombinant OmpH was fatal to the host E. coli BL21 (DE3). However, the truncated OmpH fused with GST was consecutively expressed in E. coli DH5$\alpha$. A large quantity of the fused polypeptide was purified through GST-affinity chromatography.

The objective of this research was to provide the characterization and method for producing anti-E. coli O157:H7 antibodies in egg-laying hens and to determine if the antibody can restrain the proliferation of E. coli O157:H7 in-vitro. Selected antigenic fractions (whole cell, outer membrane protein and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)) from E. coli O157:H7 were injected to hens in order to produce anti-E. coli O157:H7 antibodies. The immune response and the egg yolk antibodies of laying hens against the whole cell, outer membrane protein and LPS antigens were monitored by ELISA. The level of antibodies against whole cell antigen monitored through ELISA sharply increased after the initial immunization, and it was found to be maximum on day 49 however, the level was maintained up to day 70. Antibodies (5 mg/ml) directed against the whole cell inhibited E. coli proliferation 10-13 times more than outer membrane protein or LPS. The antibody response against the whole cell antigens appeared to have higher activity in restraining the proliferation of E. coli O157:H7 than antibody against outer membrane protein or LPS. Results reflected that increasing the IgY's in the egg yolk could prevent greater economic losses due to human and animal health from pathogenic bacteria i.e. E. coli O157:H7.

Helicobacter pylori is a spiral-shaped, microaerophilic human gastric pathogen causing chronic-active gastritis in association with duodenal ulcer and gastric cancer. To investigate the possibility of H. pylori outer membrane proteins (OMPS) as the oral vaccine antigens, sarcosine-insoluble outer membrane fraction has been prepared from H. pylori NCTC 11637. The major OMPs having apparent molecular masses of 62 kDa, 54 kDa and 33 kDa were detected by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), which were identified as urease B subunit (UreB), heat shock protein (Hsp54 kDa) and urease A subunit (UreA), respectively. Minor protein bands of 57 kDa, 52 kDa, 40 kDa, 36 kDa and 31 kDa were also observed. The antigenicity of H. pylori OMPs and antigenic cross-reactivity among the strains were determined by immunoblot analysis using anti-H. pylori OMPs antisera or intestinal lavage solutions. The results showed that UreB, Hsp54 kDa, UreA and 40 kDa proteins vigorously stimulated mucosal immune response rather than systemic immunity. From this results, these proteins seemed to be useful as the antigen candidates for the oral vaccine. The immunoblotting results with surface proteins from eight isolated H. pylori strains were similar to that of H. pylori NCTC 11637. The IgA which had been arised from oral administration of H. pylori OMPs, was able to bind H. pylori whole-cells.

Pasteurella. multocida 균은 광범위한 질병을 야기시키는 악성 감염원으로 알려져 있다. 그람 음성균의 동종 및 이종간에 의한 감염에 대한 강력한 백신 후보 물질로써 OmpH라고 불리는 porin 단백질이 고려되어 왔다. 이 OmpH가 이번 연구에서 분리 및 정제되었다. 선도 단백질을 제거한 재조합 OmpH 단백질은 pRSET A발현벡터를 이용하여 40kDa로 발현되었으며, 친화성 크로마토그래피 정제되었다. OmpH에 대한 면역혈청을 얻기 위해, 한마리의 실험용 쥐에 한번에 50ug의 단백질을 복강 주사를 통해 2회에 걸쳐 주사했다. 항 OmpH 면역혈청의 증가는 ELISA로 측정되었다. 이번 실험에서 확인된 면역혈청의 증가는 OmpH단백질이 병원성 파스튜렐라 균이 일으키는 가금 콜레라를 예방하기 위한 백신의 강력한 후보임을 보여주고 있다.

Klebsiella pneumoniae의 세포외막으로부터 2-furaldehyde를 2-furoic acid로 산화시키는 2-furaldehyde dehydrogenase를 분리하여 그 특성을 조사하였다. 이 효소는 $\beta$-$NAD^{+}$를 특이적으로 요구하였다. 분리과정중의 효소활성도는 2-furaldehyde를 기질로 사용하고 $\beta$-$NAD^{+}$를 조효소로 사용하면서 high performance liquid chromatography에 의해 측정 되었다. 세포외막은 Percoll의 밀도흉배에 의한 초원심분리방법과 $Mg^{2+}$, Triton X-100으로 용해시킨 후, 초원심분리시키는 방법으로 수집되었다. 세포외막단백질은 EDTA와 lysozyme을 처리함으로서 얻어졌고, 효소는 QAE-Sephadex Q-504 S Sephadex G-100-을 사용하면서 column chromatography 방법에 의해 분리되었다. 본 효소는 $85^{\circ}C$, PH9.5, 그리고 1.5% (vol/vol) Triton X-100의 존재하에서 최대활성을 보여주었다. 효소의 분자량은 nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel e electrophoresis의 결과, 88, 000.으로 추정되었고, 2-furaldehyde에 대한 효소의 Km값은 4.72 mM 이였다.
