Construction of Mtb72F Plasmid as a DNA Vaccine Candidate for Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Background: With one-third of the world’s population infected, tuberculosis (TB) is one of the most common infectious diseases and a major public health problem, especially in developing countries. The efficacy of the BCG vaccine for controlling the disease in adults is poor. The development of an effective TB vaccine is a global objective. An effective tuberculosis vaccine should s...
متن کاملCEA Plasmid as Therapeutic DNA Vaccination against Colorectal Cancer
Background: Human colorectal cancer cells overexpress carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). CEA is a glycoprotein which has shown to be a promising vaccine target for immunotherapy against colorectal cancer. Objective: To design a DNA vaccine harboring CEA antigen and evaluate its effect on inducing immunity against colorectal cancer cells in tumor bearing mice. <str...
متن کاملA REPORT OF RAPID AND EFFICIENT METHOD FOR MITOCHONDRIAL DNA
Based on the similarity of prokaryotic DNA to that of mitochondrial DNA, a rapid and efficient method for DNA purification from mitochondrial extracts obtained from different sources, was carried out based on the modification method described by Marmur (1983) which resulted in a high degree of purity (A260/A280=2). In addition we have applied the same technique for the first time to purify...
متن کاملDna Deformation
■ Abstract The genomes of higher cells consist of double-helical DNA, a densely charged polyelectrolyte of immense length. The intrinsic physical properties of DNA, as well as the properties of its complexes with proteins and ions, are therefore of fundamental interest in understanding the functions of DNA as an informational macromolecule. Because individual DNA molecules often exceed 1 cm in ...
متن کاملConstruction of a Eukaryotic Plasmid Encoding Bacillus anthracis Protective Antigen, a Candidate for DNA Vaccine
Background: DNA immunization with plasmid DNA encoding bacterial, viral, parasitic and tumor antigens has been reported to trigger protective immunity. Objective: To evaluate the use of a DNA immunization strategy for protection against anthrax, a plasmid was constructed. Methods: The partialsequence of protective antigen of Bacillus anthracis, amino acids 175-764, as a potent immunogenic targe...
