Cloning, expression and characterization of aerolysin from Aeromonas hydrophila in Escherichia coli.
Aerolysin is a toxin (protein in nature) secreted by the strains of Aeromonas spp. and plays an important role in the virulence of Aeromonas strains. It has also found several applications such as for detection of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins etc. A. hydrophila is a ubiquitous Gram-negative bacterium which causes frequent harm to the aquaculture. To obtain a significant ...
متن کاملThe cytotoxic enterotoxin of Aeromonas hydrophila is aerolysin.
The channel-forming toxin aerolysin was identified 25 years ago by Bernheimer and Avigad (1), who gave the protein its name. Aerolysin was purified by Buckley et al. (2), and its structural gene, named aerA, was cloned and sequenced almost simultaneously by two groups (6, 7). Since then more than 50 articles describing the expression, secretion, and properties of aerolysin have appeared, and ae...
متن کاملConstruction of vaccine from Lactococcus lactis bacteria using Aeromonas hydrophila virulent Aerolysin gene
In this study the forward and reverse primers were designated to amplify the segments (~250 bps and ~650 bps) of the gene coding domains 1 and 4 of aerolysin of Aeromonas hydrophila. These two domains are involved in pathogenesis of the aerolysin gene. Sequences for two restriction enzymes, Pst I and Hind III, were included in the forward and reverse primers respectively. These restriction enz...
متن کاملIsolation and Partial Characterization of Two Aeromonas hydrophila Bacteriophages.
Two Aeromonas hydrophila bacteriophages, Aeh1 and Aeh2, were isolated from sewage. Both phages showed binal symmetry. The dimensions of A. hydrophila phages Aeh1 and Aeh2 differed from those of the other Aeromonas phages. Also, phage Aeh2 was the largest Aeromonas phage studied to date. Phage Aeh1 formed small, clear plaques, and phage Aeh2 formed turbid plaques with clear centers. Both phages ...
