Abstract: Phosphorylated heptose compounds are useful in modulating an immune response in a subject. Also, the compounds are useful as adjuvants.

Abstract: The disclosure provides immunogenic compositions comprising a polypeptide comprising a C-lobe domain or an N-lobe domain of a HIBP surface receptor protein obtainable from or obtained from a Gram-negative bacterial species. The HIBP surface receptor proteins have been modified in such a manner that they are unable to bind host iron binding protein. Methods of making and using these immunogenic positions to prepare animal and human vaccines are also provided.

Abstract: Novel methods and uses for modulating immune responses are provided. The methods and uses involve the use of a TIFA activator such heptose-1,7-5 bisphosphate or an analog or derivative thereof. The methods may be used to activate, inhibit or otherwise modify an immune response so as to either prevent or treat infectious or inflammatory diseases or cancer. Also provided are methods to identify compounds capable of modulating immune responses.

Abstract: Live vaccines, live-attenuated vaccines, dead vaccines, protein preparations for use in vaccines and OMVs for use in vaccines are free of CEACAM1-binding Opa, though max contain Opa variants that are antigenic but don't bind to CEACAM1.

Abstract: Purified and isolated nucleic acid is provided which encodes a transferrin receptor protein of a strain of Haemophilus or a fragment or an analog of the transferrin receptor protein. The nucleic acid sequence may be used to produce peptides free of contaminants derived from bacteria normally containing the Tbp1 or Tbp2 proteins for purposes of diagnostics and medical treatment. Furthermore, the nucleic acid molecule may be used in the diagnosis of infection. Also provided are recombinant Tbp1 or Tbp2 and methods for purification of the same. Live vectors expressing epitopes of transferrin receptor protein for vaccination are provided.
