A series of four expression plasmids coding for fusion proteins containing foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) sequences was constructed. The fusion proteins contain a large part of beta-galactosidase from Escherichia coli preceded (N-terminal) by 1, 2, 4 or 8 repeats of the antigenic determinant of FMDV consisting of amino acids 137-162 of the capsid polypeptide VP1. All four fusion proteins were efficiently produced in E. coli host bacteria. Immunization of rabbits resulted in FMDV-specific, neutralizing antibodies, the response being dependent on the number of repeats. With enzyme-linked immunosorbent-assay techniques it was shown that the FMDV antigenic determinants are exposed on the surface of the fusion proteins under non-denaturing conditions.
