Construction of a Nanobodies Phage Display Library From an Escherichia coli Immunized Dromedary
Background: Diarrhea caused by Escherichia coli is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in young animals. Few treatment options are available, mainly antibiotic therapy increasingly limited by resistance to commonly used drugs.Objectives: The aim of this work was to develop immunotherapy based on the use of camel VHH antibody fragments, or nanobodies,...
متن کاملTransposition of cyanobacterium insertion element ISY100 in Escherichia coli.
The genome of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6803 has nine kinds of insertion sequence (IS) elements, of which ISY100 in 22 copies is the most abundant. A typical ISY100 member is 947 bp long and has imperfect terminal inverted repeat sequences. It has an open reading frame encoding a 282-amino-acid protein that appears to have partial homology with the transposase encoded by a ...
متن کاملPhylogenetic analysis of Escherichia coli strains isolated from human samples
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a normal inhabitant of the gastrointestinal tract of vertebrates, including humans. Phylogenetic analysis has shown that E. coli is composed of four main phylogenetic groups (A, B1, B2 and D). Group A and B1 are generally associated with commensals, whereas group B2 is associated with extra-intestinal pathotypes. Most enteropathogenic isolates, however, are assigne...
متن کاملLineage-specific distribution of insertion sequence excision enhancer in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from swine.
Insertion sequences (ISs) are the simplest transposable elements and are widely distributed in bacteria; however, they also play important roles in genome evolution. We recently identified a protein called IS excision enhancer (IEE) in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157. IEE promotes the excision of IS elements belonging to the IS3 family, such as IS629, as well as several other fam...
متن کاملEscherichia coli isolated from urinary infections
Most infections of the kidneys and bladder are caused by organisms that have reached these organs by ascending the lumen of the urinary tract (Brumfitt and Percival, 1964). Initially most of the bacteria will be present in the urine and will be washed away when it is passed, but any that are attached to the mucosal surface will be more likely to remain behind and it is these that might be expec...
