Cloning of Clostridium perfringens iota toxin gene in Escherichia coli
Iota toxin is produced by Clostridium perfringens type E. This toxin causes antibiotic-associated enterotoxemia in lambs and calves. Iota toxin is a binary toxin that has two components including Ia (the enzyme component) and Ib (the binding component). Ib binds to the surface receptor of target cells and translocate Ia into the cytosol of cells. The aim of this study was to clone toxigenic epi...
متن کاملFusion of Clostridium perfringens type D and B epsilon and beta toxin genes and it’s cloning in E. coli
Designing and producing a proper fusion construction is the most important problem of producing large quantities of a properly folded functional protein. This construction should have all necessary components of a real gene. A good designed fusion gene construction could be cloned into a good and suitable host. Clostridium perfringens is an important pathogen of humans and livestock and produce...
متن کامل[Cloning of Clostridium perfringens alpha-toxin gene and extracellular expression in Escherichia coli].
Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) is a Gram-positive bacterial pathogen that widely propagets in the soil and the gastrointestinal tract of human and animals. This bacteria causes food poisoning, gas gangrene and other various range of infectious diseases. But there is no standard diagnosis method of C. perfringens. In order to develop a new type of immunoassay for clinical purpose, we s...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning of Clostridium Perfringens type B Vaccine Strain Beta Toxin Gene in E. coli
Clostridium perfringens is a gram-positive, obligate anaerobic bacterium, which is widely distributed in the environment. C. perfringens is subdivided to 5 groups (types A to E), based on its four major toxin (alpha, beta, epsilon and iota). C. perfringens type B beta toxin causes inflammation and bloody necrotic enteritis. Type B related enterotoxaemia is a major problem of veterinary sciences...
متن کاملCloning and Expression of Mannheimia haemolytica PlpE Gene in Escherichia coli and its Immunogenicity Assessment
Mannheimia haemolytica is responsible for considerable economic losses to cattle, sheep, and goat industries in many parts of the world. This bacterium isone of the causative agents of shipping fever in cattle. Current vaccines against M. haemolytica are moderately efficacious since they do not provide complete protection against the disease. Production of a...
