Abstract	Adenylate cyclase (AC) toxin from Bordetella pertussis is a 177-kDa repeats-in-toxin (RTX) family protein that consists of four principal domains; the catalytic domain, the hydrophobic domain, the glycine/aspartate-rich repeat domain, and the secretion signal domain. Epitope mapping of 12 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against AC toxin was conducted to identify regions important for the functional activities of this toxin. A previously developed panel of in-frame deletion mutants of AC toxin was used to localize MAb-specific epitopes on the toxin. The epitopes of these 12 MAbs were located throughout the toxin molecule, recognizing all major domains. Two MAbs recognized a single epitope on the distal portion of the catalytic domain, two reacted with the C-terminal 217 amino acids, one bound to the hydrophobic domain, and one bound to either the hydrophobic domain or the functionally unidentified region adjacent to it. The remaining six MAbs recognized the glycine/aspartate-rich repeat region. To localize these six MAbs, different peptides derived from the repeat region were constructed. Two of the six MAbs appeared to react with the repetitive motif and exhibited cross-reactivity with Escherichia coli hemolysin. The remaining four MAbs appeared to interact with unique epitopes within the repeat region. To evaluate the roles of these epitopes on toxin function, each MAb was screened for its effect on intoxication (cyclic AMP accumulation) and hemolytic activity. The two MAbs recognizing the distal portion of the catalytic domain blocked intoxication of Jurkat cells by AC toxin but had no effect on hemolysis. On the other hand, a MAb directed against a portion of the repeat region caused partial inhibition of AC toxin-induced hemolysis without affecting intoxication. In addition, the MAb recognizing either the hydrophobic domain or the unidentified region adjacent to it inhibited both intoxication and hemolytic activity of AC toxin. These findings extend our understanding of the regions necessary for the complex events required for the biological activities of AC toxin and provide a set of reagents for further study of this novel virulence factor.
