This invention relates to new vaccines against microorganisms based on antigenically mimetic peptides. The invention also relates to methods of discovering such mimetic peptides by first screening peptide-display phage libraries with antibodies against the microbial carbohydrate(s) of interest to locate antigenically mimetic peptides. Vaccines against Group B Streptococcus, or Streptococcus Agalactiae, are preferably produced using this method.

Cette invention concerne de nouveaux vaccins contre des micro-organismes, vaccins qui font appel à des peptides qui sont des mimétiques antigéniques. La présente invention concerne également des procédés mis en oeuvre pour la recherche de tels peptides mimétiques. Ces procédés consistent dans un premier temps à effectuer des criblages de banques de phages affichant ces peptides au moyen d'anticorps dirigés contre les glucides microbiens d'intérêt afin de localiser des peptides mimétiques antigéniques. On utilisera de préférence cette technique pour la fabrication de vaccins contre les streptocoques du groupe B ou Streptococcus Agalactiae.
