Resumen:
Aims: Characterize Bordetella
pertussis vaccine strains in comparison with current circulating
bacteria. Methods and Results: Genomic and proteomic analysis of Bp137
was performed in comparison with other vaccine strains used in Latin
America (Bp509, and Bp10536) and with the clinical Argentinean isolate
Bp106. Tohama I strain was used as reference strain. PFGE and pertussis
toxin promoter (ptxP) sequence analysis revealed that Bp137 grouped with
Bp509 in PFGE Group III, and contain ptxP2 sequence. Tohama I (Group
II) and Bp10536 (Group I) contain ptxP1 sequence, while Bp106 belongs to
a different PFGE cluster and contains ptxP3. Surface protein profiles
diverged in at least 24 peptide subunits among the studied strains. From
these 24 differential proteins, Bp10536 shared the expression of 10
proteins with Tohama I and Bp509, but only 3 with Bp137. In contrast, 7
proteins were detected exclusively in Bp137 and Bp106.Conclusions: Bp137
showed more features in common with the clinical isolate Bp106 than the
other vaccine strains here included. Significance and Impact of the
Study: The results presented show that the old strains included in
vaccines are not all equal among them. These findings together with the
data of circulating bacteria should be taking into account to select the
best vaccine to be included in a national immunization program. ©
