A chimeric gene encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) and a S-layer protein from Lactobacillus brevis KCTC3102, and/or two copies of the Fe-binding Z-domain, a synthetic analog of the B-domain of protein A, was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The S-layer fusion proteins produced in a 500-1 fermentor were likely to be stable in the range of pH 5 to 8 and $0^{\circ}C$ to $40^{\circ}C$. Their adhesive property enabled an easy and rapid immobilization of enzymes or antibodies on solid materials such as plastics, glass, sol-gel films, and intestinal epithelial cells. Owing to their affinity towards intestinal cells and immunoglobulin G, the S-layer fusion proteins enabled the adhesion of antibodies to human epithelial cells. In addition, feeding a mixture of the S-layer fusion proteins and antibodies against neonatal calf diarrhea (coronavirus, rotavirus, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella typhimurium) to Hanwoo calves resulted in 100% prevention of neonatal calf diarrhea syndrome (p<0.01), whereas feeding antibodies only resulted in 56% prevention.

Commercial bivalent killed Salmonella vaccine Salenvac-T has been used in several countries in order to prevent salmonellosis with Salmonella enterica serovars Enteritidis (SE) and Typhimurium (ST) in poultry. However, this vaccine has not been used in poultry farms in South Korea. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of Salenvac-T vaccine to protect against the challenge of virulent SE and ST, and the effect of the vaccine on egg production and mortality in layer hens. The colonization of liver, spleen and cecum with challenged SE and ST was reduced in vaccinated chickens compared with that of unvaccinated control group. The twice vaccination with Salenvac-T induced elevated antibody responses against both SE and ST detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The higher average hen-day production was observed in the vaccinated layer hens than in the unvaccinated layer hens without significance. The average mortality was lower in the vaccinated layer hens during the experiment period. The antibody responses to both SE and ST were persistently detected in the vaccinated layers. In summary, vaccination with Salenvac-T reduces colonization of internal organs and induces good antibody responses, thereby results in higher performance and lower egg contamination with SE and ST in layer hens.

An immunosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with a self-assembled protein G layer was developed for the detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7. A self-assembled protein C layer on a gold (Au) surface was fabricated by adsorbing the mixture of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) and hexanethiol at various molar ratios and by activating chemical binding between free amine (-$NH_2$) of protein G and 11-(MUA) using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDAC) in series. The formation of a self-assembled protein G layer on an Au substrate and the binding of the antibody and antigen in series were confirmed by SPR spectroscopy. The surface morphology analyses of the self-assembled protein G layer on the Au substrate, monoclonal antibody (Mab) against E. coli O157:H7 which was immobilized on protein G, and bound E. coli O157:H7 extracts on Immobilized Mab against E. coii O157:H7 were performed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The detection limit of the SPR-based immunosensor for E. coli O157:H7 was found to be about $10^4$ cells/ml.

These experiments were undertaken as a basic study to develop immunocontraceptive vaccine and to understand the role of zona pellucidae in early fertilization process by investigating the effect of monoclonal and polyclonal antibody to porcine zona pellucidae and polyclonal antibody to mouse zona pellucidae on the fertilization of porcine and mouse eggs in vitro. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows : 1. Treatment of porcine and mouse eggs with undiluted anti-zona serum produced intense precipitation layer on the poricne and mouse zonae, respectively, thus resulting in the total inhibition of sperm adherence on surface of zona. 2. In vitro fertilization of eggs pre-treated with 0.3∼10% of various antibodies was examined, and resulting in that 5 and 10% of rabbit polyclonal antibodies to porcine zona inhibited completely both in vitro fertilization and polyspermy of porcine eggs while monoclonal to porcine zona and rabbit polyclonal antibody to mouse zona did not inhibit in vitro fertilization but monoclonal antibody reduced the rate of polyspermy compared to that of control group. Almost the same results were obtained in the study on the effect of anti-zona serum on in vitro fertilization of mouse eggs.

Cross-reactive material 197 ($CRM_{197}$) is a non-toxic mutant of diphtheria toxin containing a single amino acid substitution of glycine 52 with glutamic acid. $CRM_{197}$ has been used as a carrier protein for poorly immunogenic polysaccharide antigens to improve immune responses. In this study, to develop a sandwich ELISA that can detect $CRM_{197}$ and $CRM_{197}$ conjugate vaccines, we generated a human anti-$CRM_{197}$ monoclonal antibody (mAb) 3F9 using a phage-displayed human synthetic Fab library and produced mouse anti-$CRM_{197}$ polyclonal antibody. The affinity ($K_D$) of 3F9 for $CRM_{197}$ was 3.55 nM, based on Bio-Layer interferometry, and it bound specifically to the B fragment of $CRM_{197}$. The sandwich ELISA was carried out using 3F9 as a capture antibody and the mouse polyclonal antibody as a detection antibody. The detection limit of the sandwich ELISA was <1 ng/ml $CRM_{197}$. In addition, the 3F9 antibody bound to the $CRM_{197}$-polysaccharide conjugates tested in a dose-dependent manner. This ELISA system will be useful for the quantification and characterization of $CRM_{197}$ and $CRM_{197}$ conjugate vaccines. To our knowledge, this study is the first to generate a human monoclonal antibody against $CRM_{197}$ and to develop a sandwich ELISA for $CRM_{197}$ conjugate vaccines.

Patterning of biological molecules was attempted on both gold and glass using fourth generation (G4) poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer as an interfacing layer between solid surfaces and biomolecules. As for the patterning of avidin and anti-biotin antibody on gold, PAMAM dendrimers representing amine functionalities were firstly printed onto the 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid SAM by microcontact printing, followed by biotinylation, and reacted with fluorescence-labeled avidin or anti-biotin antibody. Fluorescence microscopic analysis revealed that the patterns of avidin and anti-biotin antibody were well constructed with the resolution of < 2 ㎛. The PAMAM dendrimers were also printed onto aldehyde-activated slide glass and reacted directly with anti-BSA antibodies, which had been oxidized with sodium periodate. As a result, distinct patterns of the anti-BSA antibodies were also obtained with a comparable edge resolution to that of avidin patterns on gold. These results clearly show that PAMAM dendrimers can be adopted as an interfacing layer for the patterning of biological molecules on solid surfaces with micrometer resolution.

A self-assembled monolayer of protein G was fabricated to develop an immunosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR), thereby improving the performance of the antibodybased biosensor through immobilizing the antibody molecules (lgG). As such, 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (11-MUA) was adsorbed on a gold (Au) support, while the non-reactive hydrophilic surface was changed through substituting the carboxylic acid group (-COOH) in the 11-MUA molecule using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrocholide (EDAC). The formation of the self-assembled protein G layer on the Au substrate and binding of the antibody and antigen were investigated using SPR spectroscopy, while the surface topographies of the fabricated thin films were analyzed using atomic force microscopy (AFM). A fabricated monoclonal antibody (Mab) layer was applied for detecting E. coli O157:H7. As a result, a linear relationship was achieved between the pathogen concentration and the SPR angle shift, plus the detection limit was enhanced up to 10$^2$ CFU/mL.
