Vaccine Detail
A. pleuropneumoniae TonB2 vaccine |
Vaccine Information |
- Vaccine Name: A. pleuropneumoniae TonB2 vaccine
- Target Pathogen: Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae
- Target Disease: porcine pleuropneumonia
- Type: Live, attenuated vaccine
- Status: Research
- Host Species for Licensed Use: Baboon
- Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Mice
- tonB2
gene engineering:
- Type: Recombinant protein preparation
- Description: The tonB2 gene was cloned from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae JL01 (serovar 1) and expressed as a glutathione-S-transferase (GST) fusion protein in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Purified soluble GST-TonB2 was assessed for its ability to protect BALB/c mice against A. pleuropneumoniae infection. Mice were vaccinated with GST-TonB2 subcutaneously and challenged intraperitoneally with either ~4.0 × 10^5 colony-forming units (CFU) or ~1.0 × 10^6 CFU of A. pleuropneumoniae 4074 (Liu et al., 2011).
