Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The current invention lies in the field of medicine and more specifically in the field of vaccinology. The current invention concerns a novel Bordetella LPS and a modified bacterium of the genus Bordetella comprising such modified LPS. The LPS of the invention has a reduced endotoxicity in comparison to an unmodified Bordetella LPS. The modified LPS of the invention is therefore particularly suitable for use in inducing or stimulating an immune response in a subject, wherein the immune response is induced or stimulated against a Bordetella infection. The modified Bordetella LPS of the invention is obtainable by introducing in a Bordetella cell the expression of a heterologous acyl transferase. In particular, the modified Bordetella cell of the invention has an increased expression of an heterologous LpxA, LpxL or LpxD acyl transferase.
