Molecular Characterization, Phylogenetic, Expression, and Protective Immunity Analysis of OmpF, a Promising Candidate Immunogen Against Yersinia ruckeri Infection in Channel Catfish

Abstract: Outer membrane porins, as the major components of Gram-negative bacterial membrane proteins, have been proven to be involved in interactions with the host immune system and potent protective antigen candidates against bacterial infection in fish. Outer membrane porin F (OmpF) is one of the major porins of Yersinia ruckeri (Y. ruckeri), the causative agent of enteric red mouth disease of salmonid and non-salmonid fish. In the present study, the molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of OmpF gene w… Show more

“…Phylogenetic and multiple alignment analysis of OmpF demonstrated high sequence identity of OmpF within the Yersiniae (80.8–86.8%), compared to other Enterobacterales (58.8–76.4%), indicating that OmpF is a promising vaccine candidate. Indeed, recombinant OmpF injected into channel catfish ( I. punctatus ) enhanced the immune response by increasing, among others, lysozyme activity, complement C3 activity and serum antibody levels [145].…”

“…Additionally, OmpF has been reported to be a protective antigen against some bacterial infections 51 , 64 , 65 . The loops of OmpF contain putative antigenic epitopes 51 , 52 and indeed, a recombinant OmpF subunit vaccine provides protective immunity against Y. ruckeri infection in catfish 53 . The identification of a 13-amino acid insertion at the tip of loop 5 in biotype 2, serotype O1 isolates of Y. ruckeri could be important if this segment of the loop represents a highly immunogenic and protective epitope.…”

“…Ail protein can promote the ability of Y. enterocolitica to attach and invade cells and help to improve the resistance of bacteria to serum (Bliska and Falkow 1992). Outer membrane protein F (OmpF) plays an important role in controlling the selective penetration of cell membranes (Shaban et al 2017) and is also considered as a candidate antigen for inhibiting Y. enterocolitica infection (Wang et al 2018a). Both outer membrane proteins Ail and OmpF have strain-speci city and good conservation (Huang et al 2010;Stenkova et al 2011), therefore we chose their antibodies as coupling proteins of immunomagnetic beads.…”
