[ 1 ] - Evaluating cytotoxic effects of recombinant fragaceatoxin C pore forming toxin against AML cell lines

Objective(s): Current therapeutic strategies for cancer are associated with side effects and lack of specificity in treatments. Biological therapies including monoclonal antibodies and immune effectors have been the subject of multiple research projects. Pore-forming proteins may become the other biological strategy to overcome the problems associated with current treatments. But detailed mecha...

[ 2 ] - مهندسی آنزیم درمانی اوریکاز آسپرژیلوس فلاووس با استفاده از روش جهش‌زایی هدف‌دار

Background & Aims: As a therapeutic enzyme, Aspergillus flavus (uricase or; EC 1.7.3.3), is used for treatment of urate deposits, gout and nephropathy, hyperuricemia and tumor lysis syndrom (TLS). Despite desirable kinetic features, fragile stability of uricase limits its wide range applications. Therefore, several approaches have developed such as protein engineering and genetic manipulations ...

[ 3 ] - Application of a Seamless and Restriction Endonuclease-free Cloning Method to Produce Recombinant Full-length N-terminal His-tagged Streptolysin O in E.coli

Background and Aims: DNA cloning, sub-cloning and site directed mutagenesis are the most common strategies in nearly all projects of recombinant protein production. The classical method of restriction site cloning is unsatisfactory due to the need for supply of restriction enzymes and the inefficiency of the digestion reaction. Many new methods, including recombinatorial cloning and ligation in...

[ 4 ] - Potentiation Effect Of 5FU by Fragaceatoxin C Pore-Forming Toxin in MCF-7 Cell Line

Introduction: Chemotherapy has been restricted due to the high-dose side effects. In the present study, acceleration of the chemotherapeutic drug (5FU) entrance into MCF-7 cells has been explored by using a recombinant form of Fragaceatoxin C (FraC) pore-forming toxin. Methods: In this experimental study, the gene for FraC toxin was order from a commercial source and was sub-cloned into pET28a...

[ 5 ] - Soluble Expression and Purification of Q59L Mutant L-asparaginase in the Presence of Chaperones in SHuffle™ T7 strain

Background and Aims: Q59L mutant of L-asparaginase enzyme from Escherichia coli (E. coli) has been introduced with lower side effects. This version of the enzyme might have potential applications in the treatment of leukemia patients. We utilized SHuffle T7 strain of E. coli, to produce the mutant enzyme in the presence of chaperone molecules. Materials and Methods: Q59LAsp gene was cloned in...
