Improvement of Technology of Cholera Toxin B-Subunit Production

production of pentameric cholera toxin b subunit in escherichia coli

cholera toxin b subunit (ctb) has been extensively studied as an immunogen, adjuvant, and inducer of oral tolerance in many investigations. production of ctb has been carried out in the bacterial, plant, insect and yeast expression systems. in this study the expression of the ctb containing a 6xhis-tagged was performed by escherichia coli (e.coli) m15. the yield of purified pentameric recombina...

Fusion of Cholera toxin B subunit (ctxB) with Shigella dysenteriae type I toxin B subunit (stxB), Cloning and Expression that in E. coli

Background and Objective: Shiga toxin (STx) is the main virulence factor in Shigella Dysenteriae type I and is composed of an enzymatic subunit STxA monomer and a receptor-binding STxB homopentamer. Shigella toxin B subunit (STxB) is a non-toxic homopentameric protein responsible for toxin binding and internalization into target cells by interacting with glycolipid (Gb3). Cholera toxi...

Cholera Toxin B-Subunit Prevents Activation

Expression of Recombinant Protein B Subunit Pili from Vibrio Cholera

Background & Aims: Vibrio cholerae is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen that causes cholera disease. Following ingestion by a host and entry into the upper intestine, V. cholera colonizes and begins to emit enterotoxin. One of the most pathogenic factors of Vibrio cholera is toxin-coregulated pili (TCP). ToxinCoregulated pili is as the primary factor requiered for the colonization and insisten...
