Toxoids of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin-A: photoaffinity inactivation of purified toxin and purified toxin derivatives.

For the preparation of greatly detoxified but highly immunogenic toxoids, two enzymatically active, low-toxicity derivatives of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin-A were further inactivated by photoaffinity labeling. These derivatives were formed during toxin purification, when a relatively crude toxin preparation was concentrated by ammonium sulfate precipitation and subsequently dialyzed. These ...

Toxoid of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A generated by deletion of an active-site residue.

Glutamic acid-553 of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A (ETA), identified previously as an active-site residue, was deleted by oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis of the cloned toxin gene in Escherichia coli. The purified mutant toxin was stable, fully immunoreactive, and capable of blocking toxin receptors. ADP-ribosyltransferase and cytotoxic activities were at least 10(6)-fold lower than tho...

PREPARATION AND EVALUATION OF PROPERTIES OF PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA EXOTOXIN A CONJUGATE WITH GOLD NANOPARTICLES

Background & Aims: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen and most important cause of hospital infections, which causes septicemia and death through various virulence factors such as exotoxin A. In the present study, P. aeruginosa exotoxin A (as a toxic factor) was prepared with the aim of obtaining a new recombinant vaccine candidate and conjugated with gold nanoparticles and its ...

Pseudomonas Exotoxin A: optimized by evolution for effective killing

Pseudomonas Exotoxin A (PE) is the most toxic virulence factor of the pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This review describes current knowledge about the intoxication pathways of PE. Moreover, PE represents a remarkable example for pathoadaptive evolution, how bacterial molecules have been structurally and functionally optimized under evolutionary pressure to effectively impair and k...

CD4-Pseudomonas Exotoxin Conjugates Delay

The CD4 molecule is a high affinity receptor for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) envelope glycoprotein (gpl60 or gpl20). This glycoprotein is expressed on the surface membrane of cells infected with HIV. It has, therefore, been suggested that a soluble form ofCD4 might be used as a targeting agent to deliver toxins selectively to cells infected with HIV. We demonstrate that CD4-Pseudomon...
