VLP-antigen constructs. Constructs contain linker regions composed of glycine and serine residues to provide flexibility and a Strep-tag for purification. CFHbp sequence refers to residues H157 to Q274 of the FHbp ORF from strain MC58 (PubMLST allele designation: 1); this corresponds to the C-terminal domain comprising approximately half the mature protein [13]. NadA sequence refers to residues A26 to G309 of the NadA ORF from strain MC58 (PubMLST allele designation: 1); this corresponds to the N-terminal globular and subsequent coiled-coil domains, encompassing all of the soluble parts of the mature protein [18].
