Following two intragastric immunizations in BALB/c mice, the Yersinia vectors harboring a DNA vaccine encoding BFR (P39) induced antigen-specific serum immunoglobulin and Th1-type responses among splenocytes. The best protection was conferred by a serotype O:9 strain carrying pCIP39, confirming the importance of the P39 T-cell antigen in this mechanism (Al-Mariri et al., 2002).
