For the purpose to clarifying the biologically active substance of B. pertussis, we prepared the filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) from culture supernatant of the strain Tohama phase I and purified it through chromatography columns of hydroxylapatite, fetuin-Sepharose 4B and Sepharose CL 6B. There are several bands appeared in the polyacrylamide gel after SDS-PAGE, especially between 98 kD and 210 kD. The amount of 210 kD component is not proportional to hemagglutination (HA) activity of FHA among five different lots. Irons et al. reported that FHA preparation degraded the 220 kD and 210 kD polypeptides during the storage would be reduced the specific HA activity. Our result pointed out that the HA activity of purified Foffdid not relate to 210 kD component only. For the quality control of FHA purity in the B. pertussis acellular vaccine, we suggest that it would be necessary to test both HA titer and SDS-PAGE results.

D001886 Bordetella pertussis A species of gram-negative, aerobic bacteria that is the causative agent of WHOOPING COUGH. Its cells are minute coccobacilli that are surrounded by a slime sheath. Bacterium tussis-convulsivae,Haemophilus pertussis,Hemophilus pertussis
D006388 Hemagglutinins Agents that cause agglutination of red blood cells. They include antibodies, blood group antigens, lectins, autoimmune factors, bacterial, viral, or parasitic blood agglutinins, etc. Isohemagglutinins,Exohemagglutinins,Hemagglutinin
D000942 Antigens, Bacterial Substances elaborated by bacteria that have antigenic activity. Bacterial Antigen,Bacterial Antigens,Antigen, Bacterial
D018829 Adhesins, Bacterial Cell-surface components or appendages of bacteria that facilitate adhesion (BACTERIAL ADHESION) to other cells or to inanimate surfaces. Most fimbriae (FIMBRIAE, BACTERIAL) of gram-negative bacteria function as adhesins, but in many cases it is a minor subunit protein at the tip of the fimbriae that is the actual adhesin. In gram-positive bacteria, a protein or polysaccharide surface layer serves as the specific adhesin. What is sometimes called polymeric adhesin (BIOFILMS) is distinct from protein adhesin.
