Abstract

See full text

The present invention is related with the field of Biomedicine. It comprises the engineering of the Pertactin protein (Prn) and using it as part of bacterial vaccines, and more precisely, as part of acellular vaccines against Bordetella pertusis. The engineered Prn molecules comprise on their structure polimorfisms from different B. pertussis strains, and induce immune responses with protective capacity and opsonophagocytic activity when assayed as vaccines, higher than that generated by other pre-existing vaccines. The engineered Prn variants of the present invention are applicable in human and veterinary medicine.
