Hemin-binding protein 35 (HBP35) may be an essential protein for bacterial survival in evasion from environmental stress in Porphyromonas gingivalis. The anti-recombinant HBP35 antibody inhibits P gingivalis hemagglutination. This study considered the role of this protein for hemagglutination and adherence to host cells using the HBP35-deficient mutant (MD774) derived from P. gingivalis FDC381. FDC381 had strong hemagglutination activity, whereas MD774 had no activity. Anti-130-kDa hemagglutinin antibody, mAb-Pg-vc, reacted mainly with the 43- and 49-kDa molecules in the membrane fraction. However, no proteins reacted in the MD774. The hemolytic activity in MD774 was much lower than that in FDC381. Anti-recombinant HBP35 antibody strongly inhibited the P. gingivalis FDC381 adherence to epithelial cells. In addition, MD774 exhibited a significant decrease in the adherence. The hydrophobicity of MD774 was equal to 19.4% of that of FDC381. SDS-PAGE profiling of the membrane fractions of both strains showed very different profiles. Taken together, these findings suggest that HBP35 plays a role, not only in hemin-binding, but also in multiple P. gingivalis binding to erythrocytes, and host epithelial gingival cells. In addition, this protein may directly and/or indirectly affect the virulence of this organism. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
