Definitions
- Bordetella pertussis is responsible for the development of whooping cough, a respiratory disease, especially in children, which can lead to serious complications and death if you are highly educated. Whilst whole cell vaccine preparations routinely administered in combination with diphtheria and tetanus toxoids offer good protection against a serious disease, there is growing concern about the side effects of the vaccines, which has led to this. that the number of children vaccinated has decreased and whooping cough increases accordingly.
- Bordetella pertussis provides a number of virulent factors, the synthesis of which is positively regulated by the products of the bvg locus (1), which include pertussis toxin, adenylate cyclase, filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA), fimbriae and main proteins of the outer membrane (2) .

- Second cistron starting with or consisting of a start codon
- DNA region that encodes FHA is present in pRMB2.
- DNA region is further understood to mean DNA sequences which likewise encode wild-type FHA, but which differ from the DNA region present in pRMB2.
- the DNA region encoding FHA may lack the B. pertussis bvg locus.
- the plasmid according to the invention can be constructed using a pEX vector, for example the vector pEX31A.
- the plasmid according to the invention can be characterized by the lambda promoter (PL) and / or by the Shine-Dalgarno sequence of the polymerase of the bacteriophage MS2.

- the second cistron can comprise approximately 3 to 10 bases.
- the at least one stop codon can be from the DNA region.
- the FHA encodes follows immediately, or is separated by a spacer with about 5 to 100, in particular about 10 to 50, bases.
- the DNA region which encodes FHA can be adapted to the main codon use in E. coli, in particular with regard to one or more codons which represent the N-terminal FHA region, for example according to FIG. 2D or according to the following Sequence:
- a plasmid for expressing FHA in Escherichia coli or Salmoneila (in particular Saimoneila typhimurium) is provided, which is characterized in that it is a plasmid for expressing structural genes which
- the FHA encodes the bvg locus of 3rd pertussis.
- the plasmid according to the invention can be characterized in that it has been constructed from pJLA 503.

- the DNA region is inserted or which is followed by the DNA region which codes the FHA.
- the plasmid according to the invention can further be characterized in that in the DNA region.
- the FHA encodes the sub-region which encodes the first to a maximum of the fifteenth amino acid at the N-terminal, is modified compared to the wild-type FHA without changing the amino acid sequence of the wild-type.
- the DNA region encoding FHA can be linked to the main codon usage in E. coli may be adapted, in particular with regard to one or more codons which represent the N-terminal FHA region, for example according to FIG. 2D or according to the following sequence:
- an efficient and direct expression of unfused FHA in Escherichia coli is provided.
- the biological separation of FHA from other virulent B. pertussis determinants which is achieved thereby offers a solution to the problem that FHA preparations are contaminated with other virulent Bordetella determinants.
- Expression of FHA in E. coli also solves the difficulties associated with fermenting large amounts of the delicate, slow-growing human pathogen.
- E. coli and Saimonella are provided as hosts for a plasmid according to the invention.
- Figure 1 shows the production of FHA in a two-cistron system
- Figure 2 shows the construction of a plasmid for the direct expression of FHA
- FIG. 3 shows the direct expression of FHA in E. coli and in Salmonella typhimurium aro A.
- the cosmid pRMB2 (7) contains the genetic information encoding the first 3277 amino acids of the fhaB gene (5, 6).
- a com The implementation of this gene with the bvg locus, which positively regulates FHA expression in B. pertussis, does not lead to its expression in E. coli. Two different strategies were used to achieve an efficient expression of FHA in E. coli.
- the pEX31 plasmid cloning series (8) is usually used to achieve gene fusions with the first 98 amino acid residues of the NH2 terminus of the replicase protein of the bacteriophage MS2, the expression of which is controlled by the lambda PL promoter.
- FHA gene fusions are formed in pCGIT (amino acids 882 to 1670), pCG22 (amino acids 1670 to 3241) and pCG24 (amino acids 2028-3241). These gene fusions are used to represent the region containing the epitope (amino acids 1670 to 2028) recognized by the monoclonal antibody P12H3 (9) used to determine FHA expression.
- a two-cistron system for FHA production is used which is not fused with the MS2 polymerase in order to take advantage of the efficient Lambda PL promoter and the high ribosomal translation initiation rate of the MS2 polymerase Shine-Dalgarno sequence to use.
- the 8.4 kb Sphl-Sphl DNA fragment which encodes amino acids 16 to 2853, is cloned in the reading direction behind the TAG stop codon, which is located at the XbaI site of the multiple cloning site of the vector pUC18NotI is present. This stop codon is in the reading frame with the MS2 sequence of pEX31A.
- the intercistronic region is 15 nucleotides in length; after translational termination at the TAG stop codon, the ribosome transfers directly to the ATG start codon within the SphdI site of the FHA fragment; translation of the second cistron begins. The translation is then terminated at the double stop codon (TGA-TGA) present in the plasmid; see.
- Figure 1 Direct expression of FHA
- the expression vector pJLA503 (10), which comprises the heat and warmer gulated tandem promoters PR and PL and the highly efficient E. coli atpE translation start region, is modified to provide additional restriction sites to subclone the FHA gene and the Positioning of the stop codons in the reading frame to enable translation to be terminated.
- This new expression plasmid is called pJLACG1.
- the first 15 amino acids of the fhaB gene are modified by left-directed mutagenesis in order to break down the expected RNA secondary structure around the ribosome binding site, but to secure the amino acid sequence of the product to be expressed; see. Fig. 2.
- the expression plasmids pCG18 (amino acids 16 to 2853), pCG32 (amino acids 1 to 2853) and pCG26 (amino acids 1 to 3277) are transformed into E. coli CAG629 (from Dr. C. Gross), E. coli EC538 (from Dr J. McCarthy) and E. coli EC876 (from Dr. R. Brownlie) and in S. typhimurium aro A SL3261 (11).
