Abstract
The amino acid sequence of the Chlamydia trachomatis major outer membrane protein (MOMP) has been modeled using a series of recombinant proteins containing MOMP fragments with lengths of 100 amino acids and overlaps of 30 amino acids. Testing of recombinant antigens in the immune enzyme analysis has shown that the proteins containing MOMP fragments of 191–286 and from 191–354 amino acids have had the greatest activity in the reaction with the anti-C. trachomatis-positive sera. The obtained data allow us to reach conclusions regarding the possibility of applying the presented recombinant proteins to develop a diagnostic test for detecting anti-C. trachomatis antibodies.
