摘要

Filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), a 220-kDa protein that mediates the adhesion of Bordetella pertussis to eukaryotic cells, is a component of acellular vaccines against whooping cough. To identify the subregions of FHA that are immunogenic for T cells, 16 human T-cell clones were raised against purified FHA and tested for the recognition of recombinant and proteolytic fragments. The clones were found to map either in the carboxy-terminal or the amino-terminal part of the FHA molecule, but none of them recognized the central region, which contains a sequence that is homologous to that of the eukaryotic protein fibronectin. These data suggest that subregions of FHA that do not contain sequences that are potentially cross-reactive with self proteins may be sufficient to induce an immune response against the whole protein.
