A Single Point Mutation within the Coding Sequence of Cholera Toxin B Subunit Will Increase Its Expression Yield

a single point mutation within the coding sequence of cholera toxin b subunit will increase its expression yield

background: cholera toxin b subunit (ctb) has been extensively considered as an immunogenic and adjuvant protein, but its yield of expression is not satisfactory in many studies. the aim of this study was to compare the expression of native and mutant recombinant ctb (rctb) in pqe vector. methods: ctxb fragment from vibrio cholerae o1 atcc14035 containing the substitution of mutant ctxb for ami...

Designing, Optimization and Construction of Myelin Basic Protein Coding Sequence Binding to the Immunogenic Subunit of Cholera Toxin

Abstract Background and Objectives: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. Mucosal feeding of myelin basic protein binding to the cholera toxin B subunit can reduce the intensity of the immune response in MS patients. Expression system, the domain composition of the fusion protein, accessibility of two domains, codon adaptation index (CAI) and GC contents are v...

Fusion of Cholera toxin B subunit (ctxB) with Shigella dysenteriae type I toxin B subunit (stxB), Cloning and Expression that in E. coli

Background and Objective: Shiga toxin (STx) is the main virulence factor in Shigella Dysenteriae type I and is composed of an enzymatic subunit STxA monomer and a receptor-binding STxB homopentamer. Shigella toxin B subunit (STxB) is a non-toxic homopentameric protein responsible for toxin binding and internalization into target cells by interacting with glycolipid (Gb3). Cholera toxi...

Expression of Recombinant Protein B Subunit Pili from Vibrio Cholera

Background & Aims: Vibrio cholerae is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen that causes cholera disease. Following ingestion by a host and entry into the upper intestine, V. cholera colonizes and begins to emit enterotoxin. One of the most pathogenic factors of Vibrio cholera is toxin-coregulated pili (TCP). ToxinCoregulated pili is as the primary factor requiered for the colonization and insisten...
