E. coli is the expression system of choice and a substantial body of literature has accumulated on the successful expression of foreign genes in this host. Several problems with protein expression in E. coli have been encountered, and many have been ultimately solved. This unit describes methods that have been developed for production of recombinant proteins in E. coli and potential pitfalls th...

objective(s):multi-epitopic protein vaccines and direction of vaccine delivery to dendritic cells (dcs) are promising approaches for enhancing immune responses against mutable pathogens. escherichia coli is current host for expression of recombinant proteins, and it is important to optimize expression condition. the aim of this study was the optimization of multi-epitopic hiv-1 tat/pol/gag/env ...

Enhanced production of recombinant dengue multi-epitope protein in Escherichia coli was achieved by optimization of culture medium. Complex media (Luria Bertani broth, Terrific broth, Super broth, M9 minimal media, five times Luria Bertani broth, semi-defined medium enriched with tryptone and yeast extract, and semi-defined medium enriched with glucose) were evaluated for production of recombin...

Background: The advent of recombinant DNA technology has facilitated heterologous expression of proteins from various sources in different host systems including Escherichia coli. If a plant virus coat protein is expressed in the bacterium it can be used as the antigen for antibody preparation. Such a recombinant antigen preparation can be particularly useful where equipment such as ultracentri...

Antibacterial resistance is a major worldwide threat due to the increasing number of infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria with medical devices being source these infections. This suggests need for new antimicrobial biomaterial designs able withstand pressure resistance. Recombinant protein polymers (rPPs) are an emerging class nature-inspired biopolymers unique chemical, physical ...

Introduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major public health problem which influences about 170 million people worldwide. Different types of vaccines have been designed using HCV structural proteins to control the viral infection. The core nucleocapsid protein is one of the most conserved proteins and a desirable target for HCV vaccines, especially the protein-based vaccines. In cur...

background: extended spectrum beta lactamases (esbls) are an important cause of transferable multidrug resistance (mdr) in gram-negative bacteria. the most described esbl genes are generally found within integron-like structures as mobile genetic elements. the aim of this study was to identify the accompanying of class 1 integrons and esbls in the mdr e. coli isolates. methods: susceptibility t...

conclusions based on this similarity and our bioinformatics evaluations, this mentioned alpha-amylase gene can be expressed in s. cerevisiae as extracellular enzyme. results the presence of alpha-amylase gene in recombinant bacteria was certificated by colony-pcr method. after extraction of recombinant vector from e. coli, the competent s. cerevisiae cells were transformed using polyethylene gl...
