Study on Outer Membrane Protein (OMP) Profile of Aeromonas Strains using SDS- PAGE
نویسنده
چکیده
Mesophilic aeromonads are being increasingly reported pathogen of humans and lower vertebrates. Water and foods are considered to be the chief source of Aeromonas spp. At present there are several techniques available for the detection of Aeromonas spp. from water and foods. However, there is still need to develop immunodiagnostics for rapid detection of Aeromonas spp. irrespective of their species or serotype. To meet out this requirement present study was undertaken to identify the common protein moiety in their OMPs by SDSPAGE so, that immunoassays can be developed for efficient and rapid detection of Aeromonas spp. from foods.

The outer membrane protein (OMP) composition (OMP typing) of 46 fecal Aeromonas strains from hybridization groups (HGs) 1 (A. hydrophila; n = 10), 4 (A. caviae; n = 16), and 8 (A. veronii; n = 20) were examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as a phenotypic typing method. Almost every isolate of HG-1 and HG-8 had a unique OMP profile, in contrast to isolates of HG-...

Strains of Haemophilus influenzae (n = 161) were isolated from inpatients with symptoms of pulmonary infection. Conventional tests showed that 144 strains were non-serotypable and all belonged to one of eight biotypes. The common biotypes were 2 (41%), 3 (27.1%), 1 (13.2%) and 5 (10.4%). The outer membrane protein (OMP) profiles of 59 non-serotypable strains were examined by sodium dodecyl sulp...

Isolation and purification of major outer membrane proteins (OMP) from the cell wall envelope of Brucella abortus S-99 were achieved by sonication, solubilization and membrane fractionation in the presence of non-ionic detergent (Tx-100) and lysozyme treatments, followed by ultracentrifugation. The crude OMP was treated with trypsin to free the preparation from any other protein contaminan...

Background: Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) constitute the main structure and about half of the cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria. The OMPs of Escherichia coli (E. coli) play an important role in its drug resistance. Previous studies have shown that the OMPs of E. coli enhance its pathogenic effects by helping the bacterium to evade the immune defense and promote its adsorption to host cells. ...
