Abstract
⺠We constructed rSmeg_pMIP_(bfpA or intimin) and rBCG_pMIP_(bfpA or intimin) vectors. ⺠The vectors contain the bfpa and intimin encoding genes. ⺠The vectors are stable, replicate and express BfpA and intimin. ⺠Vectors induce effective immune response measured by specific antibody and cytokines. ⺠The antibodies block in vitro enteropathogenic E. coli adhesion to epithelial cells. ⺠The constructed recombinant BfpA and intimin vectors are promising vaccines.
