Expression and Purification of Neurotoxin-Associated Protein HA-33/A from Clostridium botulinum and Evaluation of Its Antigenicity

expression and purification of neurotoxin-associated protein ha-33/a from clostridium botulinum and evaluation of its antigenicity

background: botulinum neurotoxin (bont) complexes consist of neurotoxin and neurotoxin-associated proteins. hemagglutinin-33 (ha-33) is a member of bont type a (bont/a) complex. considering the protective role of ha-33 in preservation of bont/a in gastrointestinal harsh conditions and also its adjuvant role, recombinant production of this protein is favorable. thus in this study, ha-33 was expr...

آنزیم تریپسین در شرایط قلیایی ناپایدار می باشد .و فعالیت پروتئولیتیکی تریپسین منجربه خود هضمی آن در جایگاههای خاصی می گردد. بنابر این آنزیمی با ناپایداری بالا محسوب میگردد. در سالهای اخیر موفق شدند که با ایجاد تغیرات شیمیایی با اضافه کردن فلزات خاص ، کلسیم و یا عمل استیلاسیون منجر به افزایش پایداری آنزیم تریپسین گردند. مطالعات در حال حاضر نشان می دهد که تریپسین استیله شده فعالیت آنزیمی خود را ...

Purification and Characterization of Botulinum Neurotoxin FA from a Genetically Modified Clostridium botulinum Strain

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), produced by neurotoxigenic clostridial species, are the cause of the severe disease botulism in humans and animals. Early research on BoNTs has led to their classification into seven serotypes (serotypes A to G) based upon the selective neutralization of their toxicity in mice by homologous antibodies. Recently, a report of a potential eighth serotype of BoNT, des...
