Overexpression and surface localization of the Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein in Escherichia coli

The Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein (MOMP) is the quantitatively predominant surface protein which has important functional, structural and antigenic properties. We have cloned and overexpressed the MOMP in Escherichia coli. The MOMP is surface exposed in C. trachomatis and capable of eliciting protective antibodies in infected hosts, and therefore has potential as a candidate vaccine to prevent infection with this significant human pathogen. The recombinant MOMP clone, L2rMOMP, contained the entire MOMP gene including the encoded leader sequence. Large quantities of chlamydial MOMP were expressed, some of which was processed and translocated to the E. coli surface. Surface localization of the MOMP was demonstrated by the binding of anti-MOMP monoclonal antibodies to the surface of the induced clone, and was visualized by fluorescence and electron microscopy. The induction of MOMP expression had a rapidly lethal effect on the L2rMOMP E. coli clone. Although no genetic system exists for Chlamydia, development of a stable, inducible E. coli clone which overexpresses the chlamydial MOMP permits a study of the biological properties of the MOMP, including the contribution of the MOMP variable segments to the topographical interactions which determine the antigenic structure responsible for human immune response.     

Soluble expression of OmpA from Haemophilus parasuis in Escherichia coli and its protective effects in the mouse model of infection

Haemophilus parasuis causes contagious porcine Gl?sser's disease leading to severe losses in the swine industry. In this study, we established an efficient Escherichia colibased system for the expression of H. parasuis major outer-membrane protein (MOMP) that has been known as a good vaccine candidate against Gl?sser's disease. Use of an E. coli-derived pelB leader sequence made it possible to produce recombinant MOMP (rMOMP) as the soluble forms without an additional refolding process. Using two different animal models, it was evaluated that the rMOMP was capable of inducing a significant immune response and providing protection against H. parasuis infection.     

Infection-induced antibodies against the major outer membrane protein of Campylobacter jejuni mainly recognize conformational epitopes

The major outer membrane protein (MOMP) of Campylobacter jejuni is an abundant surface protein with a pore-forming function and may be a potential candidate for vaccine development. Despite the fact that MOMP is immunogenic and the recombinant MOMP (rMOMP) can be readily produced in Escherichia coli, the nature of the antibody response to MOMP during in vivo infection is not well understood. In this study, various methods involving detergent replacement and liposome reconstitution were used to refold rMOMP, and antibody responses to MOMP elicited in Campylobacter-colonized chickens were evaluated using sera from chickens either naturally or experimentally infected by C. jejuni. The results demonstrated that proteoliposomes restored the reactivity of rMOMP to rabbit antibodies elicited by native MOMP, indicating the recovery of native MOMP conformation by this refolding method. Importantly, sera from naturally or experimentally infected chickens reacted weakly with denatured rMOMP, but strongly with rMOMP reconstituted in proteoliposome, suggesting that the chicken antibody response to MOMP is predominantly directed against conformational epitopes. These observations provide direct evidence for conformation-dependent humoral responses to MOMP induced by Campylobacter infection, demonstrate that C. jejuni MOMP is immunogenic in its natural host and suggest that proteoliposomes may be potentially used for the evaluation of rMOMP-based vaccines.

High-level expression and epitope localization of the major outer membrane protein of Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L1

Fragments of the gene encoding the major outer membrane porin protein (MOMP) of Chlamydia trachomatis serovar L1 were ligated into the pUC plasmid vectors to give a series of overlapping recombinants expressing MOMP from the lac promoter. Induction of this promoter with IPTG leads to high-level expression of the recombinant porin protein. Electron microscopy shows the presence of insoluble inclusions within the Escherichia coli host cells. Probing the expressed MOMP fragments with a set of monoclonal antibodies permitted localization of the four binding sites (epitopes) of primary-sequence-dependent monoclonal antibodies that exhibit genus-, species-, subspecies- and type (serovar)-specific reactivities.

Expression of the Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein-encoding gene in Escherichia coli: role of the 3' end in mRNA stability

The major outer membrane protein (MOMP)-encoding gene (omp1) of Chlamydia trachomatis has been cloned into Escherichia coli and partially sequenced. This recombinant gene expresses a full-length 40-kDa product, which is recognized by a monoclonal antibody directed against the species-specific epitope of MOMP. The recombinant omp1 is expressed in either insertion orientation, indicating that it utilizes its own promoter system. The endogenous omp1 promoter possesses a relatively low activity despite the high level of MOMP expression. Deletion of a 520-bp fragment at the 3' end encoding 39 amino acids (aa) at the C terminus and the remainder of the noncoding region leads to a significant decrease in mRNA stability and loss of protein synthesis. When the MOMP-encoding plasmid was introduced into E. coli minicells, it expressed 40- and 43-kDa proteins; however, inhibition of post-translational processing by ethanol revealed only a 43-kDa protein. These data indicate that the unprocessed omp1 gene product contains a 22-aa leader sequence which is cleaved during translocation to the outer membrane, to yield a processed 40-kDa protein. The recombinant MOMP was localized to the outer membrane E. coli fraction, comparable to the location of the native C. trachomatis protein.
