Abstract
The published genomic of Chlamydia pneumoniae reveals over 1000 putative encoded proteins but does not itself indicate which of these might to useful antigens for immunisation and vaccination or for diagnosis. This difficulty is addressed by the invention, which provides a number of C. pneumoniae protein sequences suitable for vaccine production and development and/or for diagnostic purposes.
