Abstract  

Neisseria meningitidis gene GNA0992 was cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-20b, and soluble expressed in E.coli BL21 (DE3). Purified NhhA stimulated a significant antigen-specific humoral response following three intraperitoneal immunization, while bactericidal assay showed that NhhA can elicit antibodies capable of inducing bactericidal activity against group B N.meningitidis strains. The results indicate that NhhA is a good candidate for vaccine development.
