  • Title: Purification and characterisation of haemagglutinin from Bordetella bronchiseptica.
    Author: Sakurai Y, Suzuki H, Terada E.
    Journal: J Med Microbiol; 1993 Nov; 39(5):388-92. PubMed ID: 8246255.
    Abstract:
    A surface protein of Bordetella bronchiseptica was purified in one step by affinity chromatography with bovine submaxillary mucin coupled to agarose. The purified protein, with a mol. wt of 200 kDa and an iso-electric point of pI 6.5, showed haemagglutinating activity for bovine erythrocytes. This haemagglutinin (HA) inhibited the adherence of B. bronchiseptica to a rat lung cell line (L2) and was able to bind to N-acetylneuraminic acid. These findings suggest that the HA of B. bronchiseptica is an adhesin.
