为研究牛源多杀性巴氏杆菌（Pasteurella multocida,Pm）Oma87基因的分子特征及同源性,本研究对荚膜血清A型（capsular serotype A,Pm8）Oma87基因进行扩增、克隆和测序,利用在线软件对其进行分子特征、抗原性及遗传进化分析。结果显示,Oma87基因全长为2 376 bp,编码791个氨基酸;氨基酸序列分析发现,该蛋白为酸性的亲水性蛋白,稳定性高,具有信号肽结构但不存在跨膜区域;二、三级结构分析发现,该蛋白为无规则卷曲及多段延伸链所形成的N字型三维立体结构。遗传进化分析显示,新疆分离株Pm8 Oma87基因与其他不同地域的牛源A型Pm和部分猪源A型Pm的同源性较近,与其他型Pm的同源性较远;通过VaxiJen软件分析发现,Oma87蛋白的保护性抗原的总体预测值为0.5478,高于正常阈值0.4,证明Oma87蛋白可作为免疫原性蛋白,为进一步研究Oma87蛋白奠定了理论基础。     

Identification of Pasteurella multocida CHAPS-soluble outer membrane proteins

Fowl cholera continues to be of concern to the poultry industry, especially for turkey growers. This disease costs the turkey industry millions of dollars annually. In order to develop improved live attenuated vaccines or subunit vaccines, the outer-membrane proteins of Pasteurella multocida were examined with the use of proteomics. Of the 11 proteins total present in an outer-membrane subfraction of P. multocida, four additional proteins were identified, completing the composition of the detergent-soluble cross-protective protein fraction. These additional four proteins include protective bacterial surface antigen, OMA87 (Accession no. 15603857); heme-hemopexin receptor, HemR (Accession no. 15602441); lactate permease, LctP (Accession no. 15603717); and heptosyl transferase F, RfaF (Accession no. 15603709). Both the Oma87 and the HemR proteins would be of interest for subunit and modified live vaccine studies, respectively, because of their purported roles as virulence factors for P. multocida.     

Investigation of outer membrane proteins of Pasteurella. 2: Iron-regulated outer membrane proteins of Pasteurella multocida and Pasteurella haemolytica

Pasteurella multocida and Pasteurella haemolytica produce specific proteins in the outer membrane under iron-depleted conditions. Pasteurella multocida serovar A expresses these proteins of molecular masses of 76 and 96 kDa as determined by electrophoresis. The analogous serovar D produces a further iron-regulated protein of 85 kDa. The Pasteurella haemolytica strains of serovar A1, A6 and T contain iron-regulated outer membrane proteins of molecular masses of 71, 77 and 100 kDa. These proteins possess binding positions for iron ions. Both Pasteurella multocida and Pasteurella haemolytica strains utilize iron from porcine and bovine transferrin, but not from haemin and haemoglobin.     

Relationship between the iron regulated outer membrane proteins and the outer membrane proteins of in vivo grown Pasteurella multocida

The SDS-PAGE patterns of the outer membrane protein (OMP) extracts of Pasteurella multocida strain P1059, grown under iron-restricted, iron-replete and in vivo conditions, were examined. The results showed that the iron-regulated outer membrane proteins (IROMPs) with molecular masses of 76 kDa, 84 kDa, and 94 kDa were expressed by bacteria grown in iron-restricted media. They were also expressed by in vivo grown P. multocida. Convalescent-phase sera, obtained from turkeys which had survived pasteurellosis, contained antibodies that reacted intensly with th three IROMPs. This indicated that these proteins were expressed in vivo. Bacteria expressing the IROMPs showed greater binding to Congo Red when compared to cells not expressing IROMPs. Cells expressing the IROMPs or its OMP extracts grown in iron-restricted media also showed greater binding to 59Fe-pasteurella siderophore (multocidin) when compared to bacteria or its extracts not expressing IROMPs. Convalescent-phase sera, which contained antibodies against the IROMPs, blocked this specific 59Fe-multocidin binding to IROMPs. Autoradiography was used to determine which of these IROMPs functioned as a receptor for the iron-multocidin complex. The results suggested that these three IROMPs have specific epitopes for binding to the iron multocidin complex.     

禽多杀性巴氏杆菌血清型与外膜蛋白型相关性研究

为了解禽多杀性巴氏杆菌(Pasteurella multocida,Pm)分离菌株的荚膜血清型、菌体血清型与外膜蛋白型之间的相关性,首先对自行分离的10个菌株采用间接血凝试验和琼脂扩散试验进行鉴定(均为A:1);然后采用超声波破碎、高速离心和十二烷基肌氨酸钠提取外膜蛋白,通过SDS-PAGE电泳的方法对上述10个菌株与C48-1(A:1)、X73(A:1)、P1059(A:3)、CU(A:3,4)等一起进行外膜蛋白(Outer membrane proteins,OMP)分型研究。结果表明:14个禽多杀性巴氏杆菌菌株以2个主要蛋白OmpH和OmpA的差异为依据分为3种主要OMP型;依据次要蛋白的差异,OMP-1,3菌株进一步分为OMP型1.1,1.2和3.1,3.2,其中OMP型1.1有6个菌株,OMP型1.2有5个菌株;OMP型2有1株(YZ7031);P1059为OMP型3.1;CU为OMP型3.2;另外,血清型为A:1的12个菌株中有11个菌株外膜蛋白型均为OMP-1型,血清型为A:3、A:3,4的菌株外膜蛋白型属于3型。说明禽多杀性巴氏杆菌血清型与特定的外膜蛋白型具有很强的相关性。     

多杀性巴氏杆菌外膜蛋白免疫作用研究进展

Characterization of outer membrane protein-enriched extracts from Pasteurella multocida isolated from turkeys

Outer membrane protein (OMP)-enriched extracts of avian strains of Pasteurella multocida were examined by use of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Culture medium did not have a significant effect on the OMP profiles of strains of P multocida examined; however, in vivo propagation had an appreciable effect on the OMP profile composition of the reference strain P-1059. Such bacteria, expressed several additional OMP in the 27-kD, 48-kD, 56-kD, 60-kD, 80-kD, and 94-kD molecular mass regions. These OMP were not detected in the electrophorogram of strain P-1059 grown in vitro. The OMP profiles of reference strains of the 16 serotypes of P multocida did not identify any serotype-specific protein markers. Field strains of serotype A:3 had variation in OMP profiles and did not express OMP that all were identical to that expressed by the reference strain P-1059. The live attenuated CU and M9 bacterial vaccine strains expressed strain-specific OMP markers of 48-kD and 45-kD molecular masses, respectively. These strain-specific OMP markers may be used to differentiate these strains from virulent field strains that are of the same serotype and isolated from turkeys that have succumbed to pasteurellosis as a result of vaccine-related reactions or breakdown in immunity.     

抗鸭多杀性巴氏杆菌外膜蛋白H单克隆抗体的制备及鉴定

为制备抗鸭多杀性巴氏杆菌(P.multocida)外膜蛋白H(OmpH)单克隆抗体(MAb),本研究以原核表达并纯化的OmpH重组蛋白免疫BALB/c小鼠,将其脾淋巴细胞与SP2/0进行融合,并以重组OmpH蛋白为抗原,通过间接ELISA方法筛选出3株能够稳定分泌抗OmpH的杂交瘤细胞株(1A9、1E9、3G7)。MAb亚类鉴定表明,1A9、1E9和3G7均为IgG1亚类,轻链均为κ链。经western blot和间接免疫荧光检测证明3株MAb均具有良好的特异性。这些抗OmpH MAb的获得,为鸭P.multocida病的快速、有效、敏感的诊断方法建立奠定了基础。     

Expression of iron-regulated outer membrane proteins by porcine strains of Pasteurella multocida.

The outer membrane protein (OMP) profiles of two strains of capsular type A Pasteurella multocida isolated from the lungs of pigs with enzootic pneumonia were studied. Sarkosyl extracted OMPs from P. multocida grown under iron-restricted and iron-replete conditions were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blot analysis. Results showed that the iron-regulated outer membrane proteins (IROMPs) with molecular masses of 74 kDa, 94 kDa, 99 kDa and 109 kDa were expressed by strain A52, while 74 kDa, 82 kDa, 94 kDa and 99 kDa IROMPs were expressed by strain B80. Swine immune sera, obtained from pigs which were first immunized with a polyvalent P. multocida type A and type D bacterin and subsequently challenged with type A strain of P. multocida, contained antibodies against the IROMPs. These antibodies cross-reacted with the IROMPs expressed by avian strain P1059 of P. multocida. Convalescent-phase serum obtained from turkeys which survived fowl cholera, also cross-reacted with the IROMPs from porcine strains of P. multocida. These results suggested that IROMPs from porcine and avian strains of P. multocida may share common epitopes that were recognized by swine immune serum as well as turkey convalescent-phase serum.     

Plasma- and iron-regulated expression of high molecular weight outer membrane proteins by Pasteurella multocida

A strain of Pasteurella multocida of avian origin expressed high molecular weight outer membrane proteins when grown in turkey plasma or in brain-heart infusion broth containing the iron chelator dipyridyl. The proteins were not detected when this strain was grown in brain-heart infusion broth or in brain-heart infusion broth containing dipyridyl and excess iron.     

Characterization of the immunogenicity of formaldehyde detoxified Pasteurella multocida toxin.

The immunogenicity of the Pasteurella multocida toxin (PMT) was studied in murine model systems. Mice were vaccinated with either formaldehyde treated pure PMT (pure toxoid) or formaldehyde treated crude extract of toxigenic P. multocida (crude toxoid). The corresponding mean anti-PMT titres, sero-conversion rates and survival rates after challenge with affinity purified PMT were compared. When assessed both by anti-PMT titres and seroconversion and challenge, pure toxoid was a more potent immunogen than crude toxoid. This greater immunogenic potency was unaffected by the addition of killed cell preparations of Bordetella bronchiseptica, non-toxigenic P. multocida and B. pertussis. Increasing anti-PMT titres and seroconversion rates were induced by increasing doses of formaldehyde treated PMT (fPMT) in the pure toxoid vaccines, but not in the vaccines containing crude toxoid. However, improved survival rates were observed for both types of vaccine, when the fPMT content was raised. Immunization of pregnant mice with vaccines containing fPMT induced protection of the offspring against challenge with PMT; the protection of the offspring corresponded to that of the mother.     

Homogeneity of VacJ outer membrane lipoproteins among Pasteurella multocida strains and heterogeneity among members of Pasteurellaceae

Outer membrane lipoproteins are widely distributed in Gram-negative bacteria which are involved in diverse mechanisms of physiology/pathogenesis. Various pathogenic bacterial strains belonging to the family-Pasteurellaceae have several surface exposed virulence factors including VacJ/VacJ-like lipoproteins. In the present study, vacJ gene encoding for VacJ outer membrane lipoprotein of different Pasteurella multocida strains (n = 10) were amplified, sequenced and compared with available VacJ/VacJ-like sequences (n = 45) of Pasteurellaceae members. Comparative multiple sequence analysis at amino acid level indicated absolute homogeneity of VacJ lipoprotein among different P. multocida strains. However, heterogeneity (18.0–89.9%) of VacJ lipoprotein was noticed among members of Pasteurellaceae. A predicted lipobox motif (L-3-[A/S/T/V]-2-[G/A]-1-C) was found to be conserved between 12-32aa residues at N-terminus among all VacJ sequences. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that VacJ is a chromosomal gene product exposed on the bacterial surface, possibly essential for either physiological or pathogenicity process of Pasteurellae and distributed widely among P. multocida serogroups. The study indicated potential possibilities of using absolutely conserved VacJ lipoprotein either as ‘signature gene/protein’ in developing diagnostic assay or as a recombinant subunit vaccine for P. multocida infections in livestock.     

Characterization of outer membrane proteins participating in iron transport in Pasteurella multocida serotype A3

Iron-regulated outer membrane proteins (IROMPs) of P. multocida serotype A3, which function as receptors for complexes containing iron ions, are induced by iron deficiency in the bacterial growth environment. Analysis of an electrophoresis image of proteins isolated from bacteria grown on medium supplemented with 2,2'-dipyridyl revealed expression of 16 new proteins that were not noted in the case of the bacteria grown in standard conditions, with molecular weights from 30 to 160 kDa. Induction of IROMP expression occurred within 30 minutes after restricted iron conditions were established. In immunoblotting, distinct reactions were noted for proteins of molecular weight ranges of 25-49 kDa, 61-95 kDa, and 108-214 kDa. Proteins of the molecular weight of 68, 75 and 86 kDa were analysed using mass spectrometry and matched with the highest probability to proteins in the NCBI data base. Several dozen different proteins with similar amino acid sequences were matched to each sample.     

Expression of 4 truncated fragments of Pasteurella multocida toxin and their immunogenicity

Pasteurella multocida toxin (PMT) is a poor antigen that becomes more immunogenic after its native structure has been destroyed. In contrast, partially truncated PMT proteins, which are predicted to be good antigens when used as a vaccine, might be used to improve the control of atrophic rhinitis in pigs. In this study, 4 truncated PMT fragments were expressed in Escherichia coli, and those 4 fragments were inoculated into mice to produce the polyclonal antibodies. The results of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) revealed that #1 and #4 fragments were the most immunogenic. Immunized mice were subsequently challenged intraperitoneally with P. multocida type D. Five of the eight #1 fragment-immunized mice showed some protection against death and bacterial clearance. Pigs immunized with #1 fragment produced no or mild atrophic rhinitis (turbinate conchal score) after challenge, suggesting that this #1 fragment could be a good candidate for a subunit recombinant-type vaccine.     

禽源多杀性巴氏杆菌重组外膜蛋白A间接ELISA方法的建立

为建立基于重组外膜蛋白A的检测禽源多杀性巴氏杆菌抗体的间接ELISA方法,扩增去除信号肽的外膜蛋白A(outer membrane protein A,OmpA)基因,定向克隆到载体pET32a,构建重组表达质粒pET32a-PmOmpA,转化至Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)以IPTG进行诱导,通过镍离子亲和层析纯化重组蛋白,进行SDS-PAGE和Westernblotting分析。以重组蛋白为包被抗原建立间接ELISA方法,方阵滴定法确定其最佳包被浓度和血清的最佳稀释度。结果,重组蛋白能与阳性血清发生良好的免疫反应。重组蛋白的包被浓度为4mg/L,血清的最佳稀释度为1∶80。SPF鸡的新城疫、鸡白痢和大肠杆菌病阳性血清,隔离饲养的番鸭鸭瘟、鸭病毒性肝炎和鸭疫里默氏菌病阳性血清,用该方法检测均为阴性。板内变异系数和板间变异系数均小于10%。ELISA方法的敏感性比直接凝集试验高出80倍以上。以重组外膜蛋白A建立的ELISA方法具有良好的特异性、重复性和敏感性,可以用于禽霍乱感染性抗体的检测,也可用于禽霍乱灭活苗和荚膜疫苗免疫效果的检测。     

The immunogenicity and pathogenicity of Pasteurella multocida isolated from poultry in Indonesia

Of 13 field isolates of Pasteurella from chickens and ducks in Indonesia, 10 were confirmed as P. multocida subspecies multocida, one as P. multocida subspecies gallicida and one as P. multocida subspecies septica. Nine were capsular Type A four were Serotype 1, one was Serotype 4, one was Serotype 11, one was Serotypes 4,12, and the remaining six were untypable. Five isolates were pathogenic for mice and two were pathogenic for chickens. Both a trivalent vaccine which included local field isolates and an imported commercial vaccine, were efficacious in layer chickens against challenge with virulent reference and local field strains. Though not statistically significant, the protection provided by the trivalent vaccine against virulent field isolate challenge was slightly better and could provide an improvement over the currently used imported vaccine although further field trials are required. A bacterin vaccine produced from a Serotype 1 field isolate grown in the allantoic sac of embryonated chicken eggs provided chickens with good cross protection against heterologous serotype challenge.     

禽多杀性巴氏杆菌外膜蛋白和脂多糖的免疫保护效果

为确定禽多杀性巴氏杆菌(P.multocida)的保护性抗原外膜蛋白(OMPs)和脂多糖(LPS)在抵抗感染中的作用,本研究提取了禽P.multocida CVCC 474的OMPs和LPS成分,将该两种成分分别与弗氏佐剂混合制备免疫原,进行动物免疫。小鼠分为4组:OMPs组、LPS组、禽P.multocida弱毒活疫苗组和PBS对照组,每组16只。各组均免疫3次,每次间隔两周。间接ELISA检测免疫后小鼠血清特异性抗体水平,MTT法检测小鼠脾淋巴细胞增殖情况。以禽P.multocida强毒株CVCC 474进行攻毒,计算小鼠死亡数及保护率。实验结果表明,动物免疫后,OMPs组与LPS组免疫小鼠特异性血清抗体水平持续升高,与弱毒活疫苗组水平相近,与PBS组相比差异极显著(p<0.01)。脾淋巴细胞增殖试验表明,OMPs组、LPS组和弱毒活疫苗组的SI值极显著高于PBS对照组(p<0.01),但3个免疫组之间则无明显差异(p>0.05)。攻毒保护试验结果显示,OMPs免疫组的保护率与弱毒活疫苗相当,为8/10,高于LPS免疫组的保护率(7/10),表明OMPs作为研制禽P.multocida亚单位疫苗具有良好的...     

Immunization with outer membrane proteins of Pasteurella multocida (6:B) provides protection in mice

The immunoprotective efficacy of Pasteurella multocida (6:B) outer membrane proteins (OMPs) was examined in the mouse model. Bacterial OMPs were extracted using sarkosyl method and analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. Prototype vaccines were prepared using OMPs with adjuvants including dioleoyl phosphatidyl choline-based liposome and Montanide ISA206 water-in oil-in water emulsion. Antibody response to the vaccine was monitored using indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The results of the study showed that immunized mice had high titre with both the formulations. The vaccinated mice were able to survive a live virulent bacterial challenge. Based on the findings of the study it can be inferred that OMPs are important determinants of immunoprotection hence can serve as vaccine candidates against haemorrhagic septicaemia.     

禽多杀性巴氏杆菌C48—1成熟外膜蛋白H重组亚单位疫苗免疫效果的研究

将融合表达禽多杀性巴氏杆菌成熟外膜蛋白H（OmpmH）的重组菌pGEX—ompmH／BL21大量培养，在最佳诱导条件下诱导表达，表达产物经蛋白酶剪切及亲和层析纯化，得到OmpmH基因的原核表达产物，将其与弗氏完全佐剂混合制成油乳剂亚单位疫苗，用该疫苗肌肉注射接种5周龄鸡，首免后每周采血检测抗体，二免后第2周用10LD50禽多杀性巴氏杆菌强毒菌株C48-1进行攻击。结果显示，OmpmH具有良好的免疫原性，能诱导鸡体产生特异性抗体，可抵抗强毒菌株C48-1的致死性攻击，免疫效果优于禽多杀性巴氏杆菌弱毒疫苗。
