Contact-haemolysin production by entero-invasive Escherichia coli and shigellae.
Entero-invasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) and shigellae were tested for contact-haemolysin (CH) with red blood cells (RBCs) of guinea-pig, rabbit, rat, mouse, monkey, man, sheep and chicken; all bacteria showed the best lysis with guinea-pig RBCs. The best culture medium for CH activity of shigellae was tryptic soy broth, and for EIEC it was casamino acid-yeast extract broth with 1 mM CaCl2. CH p...
متن کاملEfficient Process Development of Recombinant Human Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (rh-GCSF) Production in Escherichia coli
Background: The protein hormone granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) stimulates the production of white blood cells and plays an important role in medical treatment of cancer patients. Methods: An efficient process was developed for heterologous expression of human GCSF in E. coli BL21 (DE3). The feeding rate was adjusted to achieve the maximum attainable specific growth rate under crit...
متن کاملProduction of MAG1 Antigen of Toxoplasma gondii in Escherichia coli
Introduction : Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic infection caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii it leads to serious medical problems in congenitally-infected and immunocompromised individuals, while it is quite harmless in immunocompetent individuals. Toxoplasma tissue cyst matrix protein (MAG1) induces early humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. Previous studies suggested recombinant M...
متن کاملhlyM, a transcriptional silencer downstream of the promoter in the hly operon of Escherichia coli.
Transcription of the hly operon of transmissible plasmids in Escherichia coli is subject to a tight regulation which also involves various chromosomal genes, such as hha. We have identified a 200-bp region within the hlyC gene, designated hlyM, which modulates hemolysin expression. The deletion of hlyM increased the activity of hly::galK fusion 20-fold. hlyM does not contain any internal promot...
متن کاملSalmonella typhimurium strains carrying haemolysin plasmids and cloned haemolysin genes from Escherichia coli.
Like all other Salmonella typhimurium strains examined, the smooth variants SF1397 (LT2) and 1366 and also their semi-rough and rough derivatives are non-haemolytic. Nevertheless, two haemolysin (Hly) plasmids of E. coli belonging to the inc groups incFIII,IV (pSU316) and incI2 (pHly152) were able to be introduced into these strains by conjugation and stably maintained. A considerable percentag...
