Antimicrobial Susceptibility and Molecular Detection of Pertactin-producing and Pertactin-Deficient Bordetella pertussis

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2017
Resurgence of Bordetella pertussis in recent years in the United States has coincided with a dramatic rise in pertactin-deficient strains. Limited data exist on detectability by nucleic acid amplification testing and antimicrobial susceptibility of pertactin-deficient B. pertussis. This study compares 15 pertactin-producing and 15 pertactin-deficient B.

Hybrid genes over-express pertactin from Bordetella pertussis

Vaccine, 1995
Pertactin is a surface adhesin of Bordetella pertussis which is produced in small quantities when expressed from the native prn promoter. Hybrid genes were constructed in which the prn promoter was replaced by either the fha or tox promoter. Recombinant B.

Comparison of recombinant and native pertactin of Bordetella pertussis

Vaccine, 2011
Bordetella pertussis pertactin (Prn) is an important attachment factor and protective immunogen, which serves as a component in most acellular pertussis vaccines (APVs). Here, we over-expressed recombinant Prn (r-Prn) without an affinity tag using an Escherichia coli expression system. Compared to the native Prn (n-Prn) from B.

Structure of Bordetella pertussis virulence factor P.69 pertactin

Nature, 1996
A new generation of whooping-cough vaccines contain P.69 pertactin, a surface-exposed domain of an outer membrane protein expressed by the virulent bacterium Bordetella pertussis. This protein is a virulence factor that mediates adhesion to target mammalian cells, a reaction that is in part mediated by an RGD sequence.

Pertussis Vaccine Effectiveness in the Setting of Pertactin-Deficient Pertussis

Pediatrics, 2016
BACKGROUND:In the United States, the proportion of Bordetella pertussis isolates lacking pertactin, a component of acellular pertussis vaccines, increased from 14% in 2010 to 85% in 2012. The impact on vaccine effectiveness (VE) is unknown.METHODS:We conducted 2 matched case-control evaluations in Vermont to assess VE of the 5-dose diphtheria, tetanus,

Novel mouse monoclonal antibodies against Bordetella pertussis pertactin antigen with versatile applications

Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2023
Pertussis, or whooping cough, is a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by Bordetella pertussis (BP). Pertactin (PRN) is one of the main immunogenic components of BP and is employed in many commercialized acellular pertussis vaccines (aPVs). Purification of this protein by conventional chromatography methods is challenging and commonly requires
