Heterologous Expression, Purification, and Characterization of the HspX, Ppe44, and EsxV Proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Background: Subunit vaccines are appropriate vaccine candidates for the prevention of some infections. In this study, three immunogenic proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, including HspX, Ppe44, and EsxV as a new construction, were expressed alone and as a fusion protein to develop a new vaccine candidate against tuberculosis infection. Methods: To make the fusion protein, the three genes ...

Molecular Cloning, Expression and Purification of Protein TB10.4 Secreted by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis

Objective(s) Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of mortality among the infectious diseases, especially in developing countries. One of the main goals in tuberculosis research is to identify antigens which have the ability of inducing cellular and/or humoral immunity in order to use them in diagnostic reagents or vaccine design. The aim of this study was to clone and express the TB'0.4 prot...

Identification of proteins associated with Mycobacterium tuberculosis virulence pathway by their polar profile.

With almost one third of the world population infected, tuberculosis is one of the most devastating diseases worldwide and it is a major threat to any healthcare system. With the mathematical-computational method named "Polarity Index Method", already published by this group, we identified, with high accuracy (70%), proteins related to Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria virulence pathway from ...

A novel peptide interferes with Mycobacterium tuberculosis virulence and survival

Tuberculosis (TB) is a huge global burden, with new and resistant strains emerging at an alarming rate, necessitating an urgent need for a new class of drug candidates. Here, we report that SL3, a novel 33-amino acid peptide, causes debilitating effects on mycobacterial morphology. Treatment with SL3 drastically inhibits the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro as well as in a pre-clin...
