Over Expression of Influenza Virus M2 Protein in Prokaryotic System
Background and Aims: Influenza A virus of Orthomyxoviridae family is able to create pandemic influenza. Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent influenza virus infection. Matrix protein 2 (M2) is a homotetramer ion channel with 97 amino acids length and highly conserved among influenza viruses and is considered for development of a universal influenza vaccine. Materials and Methods: We...
متن کاملExact mapping of prokaryotic gene starts
It is known that while the programs used to find genes in prokaryotic genomes reliably map protein-coding regions, they often fail in the exact determination of gene starts. This problem is further aggravated by sequencing errors, most notably insertions and deletions leading to frame-shifts. Therefore, the exact mapping of gene starts and identification of frame-shifts are important problems o...
متن کاملEpitope Mapping: B-cell Epitopes
Immunoglobulin molecules are folded in a way that assembles sequences from the variable regions of both the heavy and light chains into a surface feature (comprised of up to six complementarity-determining regions (CDRs)) that is complementary in shape to a surface structure on the antigen. These two surface features, the ‘paratope’ on the antibody and the ‘epitope’ on the antigen, may have a c...
متن کاملMapping and expression of a human cytomegalovirus major viral protein.
We constructed a DNA fragment map of low-passage Towne strain cytomegalovirus by analyzing cross-blot hybridization and hybridizations of isolated recombinant clones. The abundant late transcripts were located on this map by hybridization of labeled total RNA of virus-infected cells to blotted DNA fragments. The most abundant late transcript, carried by the 11.7-kilobase EcoRI fragment (EcoRI-G...
متن کاملImmunofluorescence studies of biotype-specific expression of bovine viral diarrhoea virus epitopes in infected cells.
The expression of biotype-specific epitopes in cells infected with cytopathic (cp) and non-cytopathic (ncp) bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) was analysed by immunofluorescence. Four monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against different epitopes on the viral glycoprotein gp48 were used. With cells infected with cpBVDV strain NADL, the four MAbs yielded a strong and granular cytoplasmic fluo...
