Protein Note	Original (2000) note: Cj1259, porA, major outer membrane protein (MOMP), len: 424 aa; 94.6% identical to TR:AAC82317 (EMBL: U96452) C. jejuni major outer membrane porin (424 aa), and 98.0% identity to MOMP_CAMJE major outer membrane protein (fragments) (399 aa). No hp match. Also simlar in part to Cj1021c (63 aa, 34.5% identity in 55 aa overlap)~Updated (2006) note: Pfam domain PF05538 Campylobacter major outer membrane protein identified within CDS. Further support given to product function. Characterised within Campylobacter jejuni, so putative not added to product function. Functional classification -Membranes, lipoproteins and porins~PMID:7543469, PMID:9163918

Molecule Role	Protective antigen
Molecule Role Annotation	Adult BALB/c mice were orally immunized with a recombinant glutathione S-transferase (GST) fused to PorA prepared from Campylobacter jejuni C31 (O:6,7) (GST-PorA) combined with a modified heat-labile enterotoxin of Escherichia coli as an adjuvant and later orally challenged with C31 strain or three heterologous strains: 48 (O:19), 75 (O:3), and 111 (O:1,44). The vaccine produced robust antibody responses against both antigens in serum and secretion. Since strain C31 was a poor colonizer, homologous protection could not be studied. The protective efficacies of heterologous strains were 43% (for strain 48, P < 0.001), 29% (for strain 75, P < 0.005), and 42% (for strain 111, P < 0.001) for the 9-day period compared to control mice given phosphate-buffered saline. Thus, PorA provided appreciable protection against colonization with heterologous serotypes(Islam et al., 2010)
