چکیده

In this work we present cloning and overexpression of lactococcal CcpA protein in Escherichia coli Xl1blue strain as a fusion with 6 x His tag. A high yield of the CcpA protein was obtained when the cells were cultured in liquid medium LB with 100 microg/ml ampicillin at 37 degrees C and subsequently for 4 h after induction by IPTG. The procedure let us obtain 5 mg of homogenous CcpA protein. Glutaraldehyde crosslinking analysis indicated the formation of dimer or tetramer forms of the CcpA protein.

In vitro DNA binding of purified CcpA protein from Lactococcus lactis IL1403.

During this study His-tagged CcpA protein purified under native conditions to obtain a biologically active protein was used for molecular analysis of CcpA-dependent regulation. Using electrophoretic mobility shift assays it was demonstrated that CcpA of L. lactis can bind DNA in the absence of the HPr-Ser-P corepressor and exhibits DNA-binding affinity for nucleotide sequences lacking cre sites...

Transcriptional activation of the glycolytic las operon and catabolite repression of the gal operon in Lactococcus lactis are mediated by the catabolite control protein CcpA.

The Lactococcus lactis ccpA gene, encoding the global regulatory protein CcpA, was identified and characterized. Northern blot and primer extension analyses showed that the L. lactis ccpA gene is constitutively transcribed from a promoter that does not contain a cre sequence. Inactivation of the ccpA gene resulted in a twofold reduction in the growth rate compared with the wild type on glucose,...

Construction 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...

Alternative lactose catabolic pathway in Lactococcus lactis IL1403.

In this study, we present a glimpse of the diversity of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis IL1403 beta-galactosidase phenotype-negative mutants isolated by negative selection on solid media containing cellobiose or lactose and X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-beta-d-galactopyranoside), and we identify several genes essential for lactose assimilation. Among these are ccpA (encoding catabolite con...
