Abstract
The present invention is directed to five novel, low molecular weight proteins from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP), which are capable of inducing, or contributing to the induction of, a protective immune response in swine against APP. The present invention is further directed to polynucleotide molecules having nucleotide sequences that encode the proteins, as well as vaccines comprising the proteins or polynucleotide molecules, and methods of making and using the same.
