Expression of the cloned gene for enterotoxin STb of Escherichia coli.
This study involved the construction of hybrid plasmids to produce heat-stable enterotoxin type II of Escherichia coli (STb). The translation of the open reading frame for the STb gene estA was demonstrated in several ways. Studies using in vivo labeling with [35S]cysteine demonstrated a radiolabeled protein band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the expected molec...
متن کاملPURIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE CLONED HUMAN GM-CSF GENE EXPRESSED IN ESCHERICHIA COLI
The human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulation factor (hGM-CSF) gene was cloned in the pET 23a( +) expression vector under the control of strong bacteriophage T7 transcription and translation signals. The hGM-CSF gene was transferred into E. coli strainBL21 (DE3)pLysS andIPTG was used for induction of GM-CSF gene. Production of the target protein was obtained as revealed by ELISA and ...
متن کاملExpression of a cloned streptavidin gene in Escherichia coli.
We describe the construction of systems for expressing the cloned streptavidin gene in Escherichia coli. Although the streptavidin gene is extremely lethal to the host cells, because of the strong biotin binding of the gene product, the gene was expressed efficiently in E. coli by using T7 RNA polymerase/T7 promoter expression systems. The expressed streptavidin accumulated to more than 35% of ...
متن کاملComparative study of synthetic oligonucleotide and cloned polynucleotide enterotoxin gene probes to identify enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli isolated from 2,126 children in Thailand and the Philippines was examined for enterotoxin production and for DNA hybridization with synthetic oligonucleotide and cloned polynucleotide enterotoxin gene probes. A total of 233 infections with E. coli that were detected by one or more of these assays were identified. Of the infections, 75% (164/233) were identified by all three met...
متن کاملEffects of Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin STb on intestines of mice, rats, rabbits, and piglets.
There are at least two classes of Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxins, STa and STb. Unlike STa, which is active in suckling mice and piglets, STb is inactive in suckling mice but active in piglets and older, weaned pigs. This study examined the activity of STb in several animals and its effect on intestinal histology and cyclic GMP levels in intestinal mucosal cells. STb did not cause flu...
