Binding of cholera toxin to Giardia lamblia.
Binding of cholera toxin to Giardia lamblia was demonstrated by two slightly different methods: an immunofluorescence technique using antibody to cholera toxin and anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G conjugated to fluorescein isothiocyanate, and a one-step fluorescence method in which G. lamblia was incubated with the B subunit of cholera toxin conjugated to fluorescein isothiocyanate.
متن کاملDesigning, Optimization and Construction of Myelin Basic Protein Coding Sequence Binding to the Immunogenic Subunit of Cholera Toxin
Abstract Background and Objectives: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. Mucosal feeding of myelin basic protein binding to the cholera toxin B subunit can reduce the intensity of the immune response in MS patients. Expression system, the domain composition of the fusion protein, accessibility of two domains, codon adaptation index (CAI) and GC contents are v...
متن کاملBinding of NAD+ by cholera toxin.
1. The Km for NAD+ of cholera toxin working as an NAD+ glycohydrolase is 4 mM, and this is increased to about 50 mM in the presence of low-Mr ADP-ribose acceptors. Only molecules having both the adenine and nicotinamide moieties of NAD+ with minor alterations in the nicotinamide ring can be competitive inhibitors of this reaction. 2. This high Km for NAD+ is also reflected in the dissociation c...
متن کاملSpecific binding of cholera toxin to isolated intestinal microvillous membranes.
A sucrose density gradient assay was used to demonstrate the specificity and saturation of the binding of [(125)I]cholera toxin to isolated intestinal microvillous membranes from rat small intestine. When the toxin is first complexed to antitoxin and then exposed to intestinal membranes, the binding of cholera toxin is inhibited. To emphasize the physiologic importance of these observations, si...
متن کاملCholera Toxin
Vibrio cholerae, the causative agent of cholera, requires two coordinately regulated factors for full virulence: cholera toxin (CT), a potent enterotoxin, and toxin-coregulated pili (TCP), surface organelles required for intestinal colonization. The structural genes for CT are shown here to be encoded by a filamentous bacteriophage (designated CTXCP), which is related to coliphage Ml 3. The CTX...
