Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel, modified FimH polypeptides, nucleic acids encoding them, and the use of the polypeptides and nucleic acids in the treatment and/or prevention of disease, in particular, urinary tract infection (UTI).

Abstract: The present invention is direct to isolated polypeptides comprising or consisting of: an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47 or 48; or (a) a variant and/or fragment of (a), for example: (i) a variant of (a); (ii) a fragment of (a); or (iii) a variant of a fragment of (a); together with corresponding isolated nucleic acid molecules, vectors, host cells, methods of production, vesicles, binding moieties, pharmaceutical compositions, kits, methods of treatment and medical uses.

Abstract: Chimeric capsular polysaccharides, conjugates comprising such chimeric capsular polysaccharides, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. Further aspects include methods for immunising a subject against infection by administration of such polysaccharides, conjugates, or compositions.
