Chimeric fusion protein, which retains the central, most antigenic segment of H. pylori (hypervariable region) flagellin FlaA, while replacing the N- and C-terminal segment by the FliC flagellin from E. coli responsible for the activation of TLR5 (176 AA from the N-terminal and 99 AA from the C-terminal)fused with UreB. Thus, combining the right parts of flagellin of E. coli with that of H. pylori enables activation of innate immunity - a characteristic that flagellin of H. pylori alone does not posess - while presenting the antigen of H. pylori for antibody production. Urease subunit beta is an important pathogenicity factor for H. pylori since it enables the bacteria the breakdown of urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide, thus artificially buffering the acidic enviroment in the stomach.
