expression and purification of recombinant rop1 of toxoplasma gondii in bacteria
نویسندگان
چکیده
background: toxoplasmosis is a worldwide-distributed infection which is mostly asymptomatic but can cause serious health problems in congenitally-infected newborns and immunecompromised individuals. research is undergoing both to improve toxoplasma serological tests, which play the main role in laboratory diagnosis of the infection, and develop an effective vaccine to prevent the infection. some studies showed usefulness of rhoptry protein 1 (rop1) antigen of toxoplasma gondii (t. gondii) in serodiagnosis of the infection and induction of protective immunity. the purpose of this study was to produce recombinant rop1 and evaluate its antigenicity against human infected sera. methods: dna encoding rop1, amino acids 171 to 574, was obtained from t. gondii rh strain by polymerase chain reaction amplification and cloned in prokaryotic expression plasmid pet-15b. rrop1 was expressed in escherichia coli (e. coli) and purified in a single step by immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography. results: dna sequencing showed 99% similarity between the cloned sequence and the corresponding sequence in gene bank. results indicated the proper antigenicity of rrop1. sera from toxoplasma infected individuals specifically recognized rrop1 in western blotting. conclusion: rrop1 is antigenic toward human infected sera and can be used in studies for development of both a toxoplasma serological test and a protective vaccine.

متن کاملCloning rhoptry protein 1 (ROP1) gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in expression vector
Toxoplasma gondii contain various immunogenic antigens. The most important Toxoplasma antigens are somatic and excreted/secreted antigens. Rhoptry proteins are known as excreted/secreted antigens. These antigens have been proposed as a vaccine candidate against toxoplasmosis. The main objective of the present work was cloning rhoptry protein1 (ROP1) Gene of Toxoplasma gondii (RH) in a cloning...
