Vaccine used with vaccine vectors for carrying antigens and multifactorial vaccine strains for stimulating humoral or cellular immune response against infection by Salmonella, is attenuated by pathogenic bacterial strain

NOVELTY – Vaccine is attenuated by a pathogenic bacterial strain, where attenuation corresponds to gene silencing of a gene encoding integration host factor (IHF). The mutants are neutral for IHF himA and himD genes. USE – Vaccine used with vaccine vectors for carrying antigens and multifactorial vaccine strains for stimulating humoral or cellular immune response against infection by pathogenic bacterium Salmonella (all claimed). ADVANTAGE – The vaccine is safe due to its high attenuation and is able to induce ten types of immune responses in the vertebrate host. DETAILED DESCRIPTION – An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for a method for constructing attenuated strain, which involves: (A) processing recombination of pathogenic bacteria with a bacteriophage that inhibits recC gene product (ExoV) system of the host and promotes the recombination of linear fragments in the DNA target; (B) processing allelic exchange of the gene encoding the IHF by recombination cassette comprising an enhancement gene by using an initiator; and (C) eliminating accessory genes present in the recombination cassette containing recombinase which is expressed by a plasmid gene.
