Immunoproteomic identification of the hypothetical protein NMB1468 as a novel lipoprotein ubiquitous in <b><i>Neisseria meningitidis</i></b> with vaccine potential

Abstract excerpt

Many potential vaccine candidates for serogroup B Neisseria meningitidis (NMB) have been identified by reverse vaccinology, a genome-based approach. However, some candidates may be unseen owing to uncertain annotation or their peculiar properties. In this study, we describe the preparation and identification of a novel lipoprotein expressed in all meningococcal strains tested. mAb were first prepared from mice...
