ABSTRACT
Culture filtrate and cell extracts from Mycobacterium bovis cultures contain molecules which could promote protective immunity to tuberculosis in animals. Different protein fractions of M. bovis cultures were obtained by elution electrophoresis and were tested in experimentally infected cattle. The fractions that elicited gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) responses were resolved by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and individual proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. The open reading frames were cloned, expressed as their recombinant forms, and retested with naturally and experimentally infected animals. Eleven protein fractions were highly reactive, from which the Rv1636, HspX, Rv0138, Rv2524, EsxI, and Rv3740 recombinant proteins were obtained. EsxI and HspX were the antigens most recognized by the IFN-gamma release assay. In summary, a proteomic approach allowed the identification of novel antigens useful for the diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis.
