NOVEL GENES AND PROTEINS OF BRACHYSPIRA HYODYSENTERIAE AND USE OF SAME FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY

摘要

Novel polynucleotide and amino acids of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae are described. These sequences are useful for diagnosis of B. hyodysenteriae disease in animals and as a therapeutic treatment or prophylactic treatment of B. hyodysenteriae disease in animals. These sequences may also be useful for diagnostic and therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment of diseases in animals caused by other Brachyspira species, including B. intermedia, B. alvinipulli, B. aalborgi, B. innocens, B. murdochii, and B. pilosicoli.
