Structural Characterisation of the E. coli Heat Stable Enterotoxin STh
E. coli heat stable enterotoxin STa is an agonist of the membrane guanylate cyclase C whose endogenous ligands are the peptide hormones guanylin and uroguanylin. Whereas these peptides contain only two disulfide bonds, STa is stabilized by one additional disulfide bridge. We chemically synthesized the enterotoxin STh that originates from the E. coli strain found in humans, and we determined its...
متن کاملPurification of heat-labile enterotoxin from an enterotoxin from an enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli of human origin by monoclonal immunoaffinity chromatography.
Heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) was purified from an enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli 015H11 of human origin. The purification steps included French pressure cell disruption of the bacteria, salting-out, DEAE-Sephacel on chromatography. Application of this procedure resulted in a 95.1-fold purification of LT with a yield of 19.9% as determined by rabbit ileal loop assay. The final LT preparation s...
متن کاملProduction and purification of heat-stable enterotoxin b from a porcine Escherichia coli strain.
Production of heat-stable enterotoxin b (STb) by porcine Escherichia coli strains belonging to serogroup O115 was evaluated in ligated intestinal segments of adult rats. The conditions for optimal production and detection of STb were studied by using the STb-producing strain 4247. As STb production was similar in complex Trypticase soy broth and minimal Davis medium, the latter was used for the...
متن کاملSelective targeting of E. coli heat-stable enterotoxin analogs to human colon cancer cells.
BACKGROUND Radiolabeled analogs of the E. coli heat-stable enterotoxin (ST(h)) are currently under study as imaging and therapeutic agents for colorectal cancer. The aim of these studies is to compare in vitro and in vivo characteristics of two novel ST(h) analogs with appended DOTA chelating moieties. MATERIALS AND METHODS ST(h) analogs were synthesized with pendant N-terminal DOTA moieties ...
متن کاملPurification and properties of Klebsiella pneumoniae heat-stable enterotoxin.
The enterotoxic material in cell-free growth preparations of Klebsiella pneumoniae serotype 5 was purified by sequential ultrafiltration and gel filtration (GF) procedures and the fractions were assayed for enterotoxic activity by determining their ability to induce in vivo net water secretion in the rat jejunum. Whole-cell lysates were inactive. Anaerobic broth culture conditions yielded a 10-...
