CA 2326717

The invention provides tools for serodiagnosing HGE. The tools are structurally related proteins, "Group 44 proteins", and antibodies to such proteins. The Group 44 proteins comprise a single central hypervariable region, a first conserved region and a second conserved region which flank the central hypervariable region. The Group 44 proteins comprise P44, P44-2, P44- 12, P44-15, P44-18, P44-19, and variants of such proteins. The invention also provides isolated polynucleotides or nucleic acids, referred to as "Group 44 polynucleotides", which encode the Group 44 proteins and fragments thereof. Each oligopeptide comprises a sequence specific to one Group 44 protein. The present invention also provides antibodies immunospecific for and which bind to members of the P44 family of proteins. The present invention provides kits containing reagent for diagnosing HGE.

L'invention concerne des outils de sérodiagnostic d'ehrlichiose granulocytaire humaine. Les outils sont des protéines liées structurellement, des "protéines du Groupe 44", et des anticorps contre ces protéines. Les protéines du Groupe 44 comprennent une seule région hypervariable centrale, une première région conservée et une seconde région conservée bordant la région hypervariable centrale. Les protéines du Groupe 44 comprennent P44, P44-2, P44-12, P44-15, P44-18, P44-19, et des variantes de ces protéines. L'invention concerne également des polynucléotides ou des acides nucléiques isolés, appelés "polynucléotides du Groupe 44", lesquels codent les protéines du Groupe 44 et leurs fragments. Chaque oligopeptide comprend une séquence spécifique à une protéine du Groupe 44. La présente invention concerne également des anticorps immunospécifiques aux membres de la famille P44 de protéines se fixant à ceux-ci. La présente invention a également trait à des matériels contenant un réactif de diagnostic d'EGH.
