Vaccine Detail

Klebesiella FuyA protein vaccine
Vaccine Information
  • Vaccine Name: Klebesiella FuyA protein vaccine
  • Target Pathogen: Klebsiella pneumoniae
  • Target Disease: Pneumonia, Bloodstream infections, Abscess
  • Type: Subunit vaccine
  • Status: Research
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: Mouse
  • Antigen: FuyA (Yersinia bactin receptor FyuA) (Kumar et al., 2020)
  • fyuA gene engineering:
    • Type: Recombinant protein preparation
    • Description: Yersiniabactin receptor coding gene FyuA of Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 43816 was amplified by colony PCR using the primers Forward 5′- AAGGATCCATGAAAATGACACGGCTTTAT-3'and Reverse5′- AACTCGAGTCAGAAGAAATCAATTCGCGT-3′ which were designed for the sequence with accession id NC_012731.1. The restriction sites BamHI and XhoI were present in forward and reverse primers respectively to generate sticky ends for cloning into the vector. The amplified gene was cloned into pET28a to produce N-terminally tagged hexahistidine fusions. The resulting constructs were verified by sequencing. The constructs without mutations were transformed into E.coli BL21 expression host. The expression was induced by the addition of 1 mM IPTG and further incubation at 37 °C with aeration for 4 h before harvesting the cells by centrifugation (Kumar et al., 2020).
