"A strategy for the stable expression of proteins, or large protein fragments, from Chlamydia trachomatis into human cells was designed to identify bacterial epitopes endogenously processed and presented by HLA-B27. Fusion protein constructs in which the green fluorescent protein gene was placed at the 5'-end of the bacterial DNA primase gene or some of its fragments were transfected into B(star)2705-C1R cells," scientists writing in the journal Molecular & Cellular Proteomics report. "One of these constructs, including residues 90-450 of the bacterial protein, was stably and efficiently expressed. Mass spectrometry-based comparative analysis of HLA-B27-bound...
