Identification and Characterization of a Trypanosoma congolense 46 kDa Protein as a Candidate Serodiagnostic Antigen
Trypanosoma congolense is a major livestock pathogen in Africa, causing large economic losses with serious effects on animal health. Reliable serodiagnostic tests are therefore urgently needed to control T. congolense infection. In this study, we have identified one T. congolense protein as a new candidate serodiagnostic antigen. The 46.4 kDa protein (TcP46, Gene ID: TcIL3000.0.25950) is expres...
متن کاملApplication of sperm antigens in immunocontraception.
Development of a vaccine(s) based on sperm antigens represents a promising approach for contraception. The utility of an antigen in immunocontraception is contingent upon its tissue specificity, involvement in human fertility, and immunogenicity. A number of antigens have been characterized from the sperm surface. Notable among these are LDH-C4, RSA antigens, PH-20, SP 1U, HSA-63, FA-1, FA-2 an...
متن کاملserological evaluation of egagb16 kda, a recombinant antigen from echinococcus granulosus for diagnosis of human hydatidosis
background: regarding that accurate diagnosis of human hydatidosis still needs more investigations, the present study was conducted to clone, express, and evaluate the gene encoding agb subunits (egagb16 kda) from echinococcus granulosus (iranian g1 strain) and its evaluation by elisa test. methods: dna was extracted from protoscoleces and was utilized by pcr for strain identification. total rn...
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...
متن کاملIdentification of human sperm peptide sequence involved in egg binding for immunocontraception.
Development of a vaccine based on sperm antigens represents a promising approach to contraception. The sperm-zona pellucida (ZP) interaction constitutes the most important event in the fertilization process, and the molecular sequences involved at this site may provide the most attractive candidates for immunocontraception. In the present study, using the phase peptide display technique, a nove...
