Aim: To investigate the immunoprotection of three recombinant proteins derived from the Vibrio harveyi outer membrane proteins (OMPs) OmpK, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and their fusion OmpK-GAPDH as vaccine candidates from vibriosis of large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea). Methods: The ompK gene, of which the leader sequence was omitted, was fused with the gapdh gene. Three recombinant proteins r-OmpK, r-GAPDH and r-OmpK-GAPDH were expressed and purified. Western blots were carried out to detect the specificity of the antibodies raised against the recombinant proteins; Fish were immunized with recombinant proteins and challenged by native V. harveyi. The immunoresponse to the recombinant proteins were determined by ELISA and phagocytic activity assay. Conclusions: The fusion protein r-OmpK-GAPDH can afford greater protection against the wild V. harveyi than r-OmpK or r-GAPDH alone or their mixture in humoral and cellular immunity, indicating that OmpK and GAPDH could produce a synergistic immunoprotection against vibriosis of large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea) when fused into OmpK-GAPDH with a linker. Significance and Impact of the Study: It has been realized that a multi-component OMP antigen can induce a higher frequency of immune effectors than a single OMP. The results presented here bring forth a good suggestion for the subunit vaccine design based on the OMPs of gram-negative pathogens.
