摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates to a recombinant expression vector containing a fusion gene which is prepared by ligating adhesin gene of H. pylori and A2 and B subunit genes of Vibrio cholerae toxin, and a process for preparing a chimeric protein employing a recombinant microorganism transformed with the said expression vector. The recombinant DNA which is designed for convenient expression and gene manipulation, may express a chimeric protein having excellent immunogenicity to H. pylori, which is stable in stomach, and penetrate mucous membrane of stomach easily, finally to stimulate production of sIgA. Accordingly, the chimeric protein expressed from the recombinant DNA may be used as an active ingredient of the diagnostic kit for H. pylori infection and preventive or therapeutic vaccine for H. pylori-associated diseases, and may be used in the production of anti-H. pylori antibody.</p> |
