Functional Expression of Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone Receptor on Nano-Sized Bacterial Magnetic Particles in Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1
The measurement of autoantibodies to thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) is important for the diagnosis of autoimmune thyroid disease such as Graves' disease (GD). Although TSHR from porcine thyroid membrane is commonly used for the measurement of TSHR autoantibodies (TRAb), recombinant human TSHR (hTSHR) remains ideal in terms of stable supply and species identity. Here we set out to e...
متن کاملInducible expression of transmembrane proteins on bacterial magnetic particles in Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1.
Bacterial magnetic particles (BacMPs) produced by the magnetotactic bacterium Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1 are used for a variety of biomedical applications. In particular, the lipid bilayer surrounding BacMPs has been reported to be amenable to the insertion of recombinant transmembrane proteins; however, the display of transmembrane proteins in BacMP membranes remains a technical challen...
متن کاملSiderophore production by the magnetic bacterium Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1.
Siderophore production by the magnetic bacterium Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1 is elicited by sufficient iron rather than by iron starvation. In order to clarify this unusual pattern, siderophore production was monitored in parallel to iron assimilation using the chrome azurol sulfonate assay and the ferrozine method respectively. Iron concentration lowered approximately five times less tha...
متن کاملAngle sensing in magnetotaxis of Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1.
The mechanism of how magnetotactic bacteria navigate along the magnetic field has been a puzzle. Two main models disagree on whether the magnetotactic behavior results from passive alignment with the magnetic field or active sensing of the magnetic force. Here, we quantitatively studied the swimming patterns of Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1 cells to understand the origin of their magnetotac...
متن کاملFunctional expression of full-length TrkA in the prokaryotic host Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1 by using a magnetosome display system.
Tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA), a receptor tyrosine kinase, is known to be associated with various diseases. Thus, TrkA has become a major drug-screening target for these diseases. Despite the fact that the production of recombinant proteins by prokaryotic hosts has advantages, such as fast growth and ease of genetic engineering, the efficient production of functional receptor tyrosine ki...
