  • Publication number: 20230406890
    Abstract: Polypeptides comprising a FimH lectin domain comprising at least one an amino acid mutation that causes the FimH lectin domain to be in the low affinity conformation for mannose are described. Pharmaceutical compositions which comprise such polypeptides and methods of stimulating an immune response in a subject in need thereof by administration of the polypeptide are further described.

  • Publication number: 20220323576
    Abstract: The invention pertains to host cells for producing a bioconjugate of an E. coli O18 antigen polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein. The host cells are characterized in that they comprise modified Wzy O-antigen polymerases with specific combinations of amino acid substitutions in one or more of positions 199, 377 and 395 as compared to the wild type Wzy O-antigen polymerase of SEQ ID NO: 1, which modified Wzy O-antigen polymerases improve the yield and glycosylation pattern of the O18 bioconjugates produced by the host cells. The invention further relates to methods wherein the host cells are used to produce a bioconjugate of an E. coli O18 antigen polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein, compositions comprising these bioconjugates, including multivalent compositions comprising bioconjugates of additional O antigen polysaccharide-serotypes.
