Abstract
The gene encoding an outer membrane lipoprotein (OmIA) was cloned from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae strain NG-8 (serotype 5a). The deduced amino acid sequence of OmIA from strain NG-8 showed 61% identity to the OmIA from serotype 1 strain, which confers protective immunity to pigs. Southern blot analysis showed the presence of a sequence highly homologous to the omIA gene of strain NG-8 in strains of serotype 5a, 5b and 10. A specific serum against OmIA of NG-8 also detected a homologous protein in the strains of these serotypes. These data shows the presence of antigenic variability among A. pleuropneumoniae OmIA proteins.Entities:
