Gene hpaA, which codes for the receptor-binding subunit of the N-acetylneuraminyllactose-binding fibrillar hemagglutinin (NLBH) of Helicobacter pylori, was cloned and sequenced. The protein expressed by hpaA, designated HpaA, was identified as the adhesin subunit on the basis of its fetuin-binding activity and its reactivity with a polyclonal, monospecific rabbit serum prepared against NLBH purified from H. pylori. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis and Western bl ...[more]
