Abstract

A research on mouse antisera against hybrid flagellins having CFA/I-derived amino acid was conducted. The determination of the epitope specificity of CFA/I-specific antibodies was also compared against the flagellins. The methods used in the research include bacterial strains, peptide synthesis and epitope analysis by Pepscan. Findings revealed that anti-CFA/I mAbs, anti-CFA/peptide antibodies and polyclonal anti CFA/i antibodies respond to hybrid flagellins. Furthermore, the result of the Pepscan analysis provide that antibodies studied against the flagellins showed that they were definite for the sequences 14VIDLL18 and 96FEAAAL101.
