Expression of phycobiliprotein genes in Escherichia coli

Expression Cloning of Recombinant Escherichia coli lacZ Genes Encoding Cytoplasmic and Nuclear P-galactosidase Variants

Objective(s) Nonviral vector can be an attractive alternative to gene delivery in experimental study. In spite of some advantages in comparison with the viral vectors, there are still some limitations for efficiency of gene delivery in nonviral vectors. To determine the effective expression, the recombinant Escherichia coli lacZ genes were cloned into the different variants of pcDNA3.1 and the...

Advances and challenges in recombinant protein expression in Escherichia coli

Expression of Aeromonas caviae bla genes in Escherichia coli.

An isolate of Aeromonas caviae 035 carried a 55.5 kb self-transferable plasmid. Transfer of the plasmid to Escherichia coli K12 resulted in the expression of a TEM-like beta-lactamase that was not expressed in parental A. caviae. The bla gene sequence was detectable by DNA hybridization and PCR amplification of the plasmid when extracted from parental A. caviae or from E. coli K12 transconjugan...

Biofilm Modifies Expression of Ribonucleotide Reductase Genes in Escherichia coli

Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) is an essential enzyme for all living organisms since is the responsible for the last step in the synthesis of the four deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs) necessary for DNA replication and repair. In this work, we have investigated the expression of the three-RNR classes (Ia, Ib and III) during Escherichia coli biofilm formation. We show the temporal and spatial importa...

sodC genes expression in Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains.

INTRODUCTION E. coli O157:H7 has three sodC genes encoding for Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase. We evaluated the expression of chromosomal sodC in distinct phases of growth in different strains, and we examined the mutual capability of chromosomal and prophagic genes to influence their expression. METHODS We used One Step real-time RT-PCR technology to study the expression of sodC genes in several...
