ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides antigenic proteins ofChlamydia trachomatis. The proteins of the present invention are useful for eliciting an immune response toChlamydiain a patient. For example, an effective amount of protein of the present invention or fraction thereof may be administered to a patient for eliciting aChlamydiaspecific immune response. In another example, a method of raising an antibody specific forChlamydia trachomatiselementary bodies (EB) is provided in which a protein of the present invention is administered to a patient.
