Antipeptide antibodies were raised against synthetic peptides corresponding to the amino acid sequences of eight surface predicted regions of the pilin proteins from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAK and PAO. Four of the anti-PAK peptide antisera cross-reacted with strain PAO pili, while five anti-PAO peptide antisera cross-reacted with strain PAK pili. Only one region of the two pilin proteins (region 88-97) provided strain-specific antibodies when either strain PAK or strain PAO region 88-97 peptides were used to generate antipeptide antibodies. Our results clearly showed that cross-reactive and strain-specific antibodies cannot be based solely on the degree of homology in the aligned protein sequences. The majority of synthetic peptides bound to their homologous antipilus antiserum, suggesting that linear sequences play a significant role in the immunogenic response of native pili.
