Abstract

LP2086 is a lipidated outer membrane protein from Neisseria meningitidis that elicits bactericidal antibodies and represents a promising vaccine candidate against meningococcal infections. Here we report the backbone and side-chain assignment for two forms of LP2086: non-lipidated in aqueous buffer and the lipidated protein in micellar solution.
