Identification and Biochemical Characterization of Two Novel Collagen Binding MSCRAMMs of Bacillus anthracis

Identification and biochemical characterization of two novel collagen binding MSCRAMMs of Bacillus anthracis.

Cell wall-anchored proteins play critical roles in the pathogenesis of infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria. Through the analysis of the genome of Bacillus anthracis Ames strain, we identified two novel putative cell wall-anchored proteins, BA0871 and BA5258, which have sequence homology to CNA, a cell wall-anchored collagen adhesin of Staphylococcus aureus. The two proteins have similar...

functional study of p0 proteins of two cereal yellow dwarf viruses (cydv-rpv and cydv-rps) and identification of their cellular partner

نقش سرکوبگری پروتئین p0 در دو پولروویروس کوتولگی زردی غلات cydv-rpv) و (cydv-rps، متفاوت در شدت بیماریزایی، مورد مطالعه قرار گرفت. نتایج نشان داد که هر دو پروتئین p0 p0cy-rpv) و (p0cy-rps قادر به سرکوب خاموشی آر ان ای ایجاد شده توسط ترادف های تراژن سنس و تکرار معکوس در n. benthamiana هستند. نشان داده شد که هر دو پروتئین p0 می توانند تخریب پروتئین argonaute-1 را تسهیل کنند. علاوه بر این، تمایل م...

Biochemical Characterization of -Lactamases Bla1 and Bla2 from Bacillus anthracis

Identification and Characterization of Bacillus anthracis Spores by Flow Cytometry

Rapid and accurate detection of Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax, remains an active area of research due to the continued threat of bioterrorist attack. The ability to differentiate Bacillus anthracis spores from spores belonging to other Bacillus species is important for the development of spore-based detection methods. Furthermore, not all Bacillus anthracis strains are full...

Enhancement of Soluble Expression and Biochemical Characterization of Two Epoxide Hydrolases from Bacillus

Background: Enantiopure epoxides are important intermediates in the synthesis of high-value chiral chemicals. Epoxide hydrolases have been exploited in biocatalysis for kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides to produce enantiopure epoxides and vicinal diols. It is necessary to obtain sufficient stable epoxide hydrolases with high enantioselectivity to meet the requirements of i...
