Objective(s) Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of many nosocomial and community acquired infections. According to many reports, antibiotic therapy can not guarantee the eradication of S. aureus infections. Thus designing an adhesin based vaccine could restrain the S. aureus infections. This study designed for construction of a new fusion protein vaccine against S. aureus infections base...

Background: A specific chromosomal abnormality, the Philadelphia chromosome (BCR-ABL fusion), is present in all patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The b2a2 and b3a2 fusion mRNAs encode p210 fusion protein p210 and e1a2 encode p190. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of BCR-ABL fusion transcript variants in Northeast of Iranian CML patients and to compare the laborato...

Chromosome rearrangements and fusion genes present major portion of leukemogenesis and contribute to leukemic subtypes. It is practical and helpful to detect the fusion genes in clinic diagnosis of leukemia. Present application of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method to detect the fusion gene transcripts is effective, but time- and labor-consuming. To set up a simple ...

BACKGROUND Fusion genes generated from chromosomal translocation play an important role in hematological malignancies. Detection of fusion genes currently employ use of either conventional RT-PCR methods or fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), where both methods involve tedious methodologies and require prior characterization of chromosomal translocation events as determined by cytogenetic...

introduction: reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) assay is a useful tool for the detection of fusion transcript resulting from specific chromosomal translocation of the leukemia cells. a specific chromosomal abnormality, the philadelphia chromosome (ph), is present in 90% to 95% of cml patients.the aberration results from a reciprocal translocation between chromosome 9 and ...

background: sequence variations in glycoproteins of influenza virus surface impel us to design new candidate vaccines yearly. ectodomain of influenza m2 protein is a surface and highly conserved protein. m2e in influenza vaccines may eliminate the need for changing vaccine formulation every year. objectives: in this study, a recombinant baculovirus containing m2e and cholera toxin subunit b fus...

Background: Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine, is not effective in adults, therefore, many efforts have been made to produce an effective adult TB vaccine. The aim of this study was to develop a new tuberculosis DNA vaccine candidate encoding a recombinant HspX-PPE44-EsxV fusion antigen of M. tuberculosis. Methods: ...

objective: helicobacter pylori is a widely distributed gram negative bacterium that infects the human stomach and duodenum. some antibiotic regimens are subjected to cure the infection but the cost of drugs, poor patient compliance and emerging of antibiotic-resistant strains are limiting the usefulness of these antibiotic therapies. therefore, interest in developing a h. pylori vaccine is grow...

To investigate the distribution of tumour cells expressing the SYT-SSX fusion gene in biphasic synovial sarcoma, modified reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis was performed using microdissected specimens from haematoxylin and eosin stained sections of archival paraffin wax embedded tissues. This modified RT-PCR included a stage with degenerate oligonucleotide primed...

in this paper we investigate a new notion of bases in hilbert spaces and similarto fusion frame theory we introduce fusion bases theory in hilbert spaces. we also introducea new de nition of fusion dual sequence associated with a fusion basis and show that theoperators of a fusion dual sequence are continuous projections. next we de ne the fusionbiorthogonal sequence, bessel fusion basis, hilbe...
