Abstract
We have examined the human humoral immune response directed against proteins of Listeria monocytogenes in both healthy individuals and listeriosis patients, Two major targets for an antibody response were found in individuals that did not suffer from listeriosis: listeriolysin (Hly) and the recently described internalin-related protein (IrpA), In contrast, the humoral response in listeriosis patients appears to be more heterogeneous and included Hly, IrpA, InlB, and ActA as major targets.
