Abstract

The present invention relates to pneumococcal genes, portions thereof, expression products therefrom and uses of such genes, portions and products; especially to genes of Streptococcus pneumoniae , e.g., the gene encoding pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA), i.e., the pspA gene, the gene encoding pneumococcal surface protein A-like proteins, such as pspA-like genes, e.g., the gene encoding pneumococcal surface protein C (PspC), i.e., the pspC gene, portions of such genes, expression products therefrom, and the uses of such genes, portions thereof and expression products therefrom.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed:  
     
         1 . An isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding a pneumoccocal surface protein (PspC) gene of  S. pneumoniae  or epitope thereof.  
     
     
         2 . A vector or plasmid comprising the isolated nucleic acid molecule of  claim 1 .  
     
     
         3 . An immunological composition comprising the nucleic acid molecule of  claim 1.
