[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/NHBA_NEIME NHBA_NEIME] A major human immunogenic protein detected in patients recovering from meningitidis, where it induces bactericidal antibodies (PubMed:30133484) (By similarity). Binds human cells, heparin and heparan sulfate proteoglycan in vitro via the Arg-rich motif. Heparin-binding to this protein protects bacteria against killing by bactericidal antibodies (serum killing). The bacteria binds a number of human extracellular sialyated and/or sulfated glycans via this protein, including chondroitin sulfate, heparin and ganglioside GT3.

When NHBA is not processed by NalP there is an increase in biofilm formation (PubMed:23163582). Lack of processing may lead to an increase in positively charged, NHBA- and IgA-derived DNA-binding peptides on the cell surface, resulting in increased DNA-binding peptides and increased biofilm formation (Probable).<ref>PMID:23163582</ref> <ref>PMID:23163582</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
 +
Neisserial heparin binding antigen (NHBA) is one of three main recombinant protein antigens in 4CMenB, a vaccine for the prevention of invasive meningococcal disease caused by Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B. NHBA is a surface-exposed lipoprotein composed of a predicted disordered N-terminal region, an arginine-rich region that binds heparin, and a C-terminal domain that folds as an anti-parallel beta-barrel and that upon release after cleavage by human proteases alters endothelial permeability. NHBA induces bactericidal antibodies in humans, and NHBA-specific antibodies elicited by the 4CMenB vaccine contribute to serum bactericidal activity, the correlate of protection. To better understand the structural bases of the human antibody response to 4CMenB vaccination and to inform antigen design, we used X-ray crystallography to elucidate the structures of two C-terminal fragments of NHBA, either alone or in complex with the Fab derived from the vaccine-elicited human monoclonal antibody 5H2, and the structure of the unbound Fab 5H2. The structures reveal details on the interaction between an N-terminal beta-hairpin fragment and the beta-barrel, and explain how NHBA is capable of generating cross-reactive antibodies through an extensive conserved conformational epitope that covers the entire C-terminal face of the beta-barrel. By providing new structural information on a vaccine antigen and on the human immune response to vaccination, these results deepen our molecular understanding of 4CMenB, and might also aid future vaccine design projects.
