Functional Characterization of AasP, a Maturation Protease Autotransporter Protein of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (2008)
Journal Article
Ali, T., Oldfield, N. J., Wooldridge, K. G., Turner, D. P., & Ala'Aldeen, D. A. A. (2008). Functional Characterization of AasP, a Maturation Protease Autotransporter Protein of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae. Infection and Immunity, 76(12), 5608-5614. https://doi.org/10.1128/IAI.00085-08

Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is the etiological agent of porcine pleuropneumonia, a highly contagious respiratory infection in pigs. AasP, a putative subtilisin-like serine protease autotransporter, has recently been identified in A. pleuropneumon...

Identification and characterization of novel antigenic vaccine candidates of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (2008)
Journal Article
Oldfield, N. J., Donovan, E. A., Worrall, K. E., Wooldridge, K. G., Langford, P. R., Rycroft, A. N., & Ala'Aldeen, D. A. (2008). Identification and characterization of novel antigenic vaccine candidates of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae. Vaccine, 26(16), 1942-1954. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vaccine.2008.02.022

Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is an important respiratory pathogen of swine, for which there is no highly effective vaccine. A phage expression library of the A. pleuropneumoniae genome was constructed and screened to identify potential vaccine com...
