The cDNA encoding the precursor form of non-specific lipid-transfer protein (pre-nsL-TP) from rat liver was cloned into the expression vector pET3d. The resulting plasmid was transformed to the Escherichia coli strain BL21(DE3). After induction of the bacteria with isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) pre-nsL-TP was purified from the bacterial lysate by anion exchange chromatography fo...

Alanine dehydrogenase (L-AlaDH) from Bacillus megaterium WSH-002 catalyses the NAD⁺-dependent interconversion of L-alanine and pyruvate. The enzyme was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells and purified with a His6 tag by Ni²⁺-chelating affinity chromatography for X-ray crystallographic analysis. Crystals were grown in a solution consisting of 0.1 M HEPES pH 8.0, 12%(w/v) polyethylene ...

conclusions full factorial design experimental approach helped to identify the critical culture condition parameters in heterologous expression of v2r. it would allow studying the parameters affecting the function of this protein in future experiments. results the maximum amount of protein production was obtained by the addition of 0.75 mm iptg at 37°c after three hours. the most important fact...

HIGHLIGHTS E. coli BL21 as a suitable expression and delivery vaccine system; rSeM protein protect mice against S. equi infection; cells enhance the immune response equi; protein, purified or not, presented immunogenicity in horses.

Objective(s): Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is known as the most common bacterial causes of diarrheal diseases related to morbidity and mortality. Heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) is a part of major virulence factors in ETEC pathogenesis. Antigen entrapment into nanoparticles (NPs) can protect them and enhance their immunogenicity.Materials and Methods: In the present study, recombinant L...
