objective: the incidence of breast cancer is approximately one million which makes this cancer one of the most common among women worldwide. breast cancer comprises 7% of the total death rate caused by cancers. several strategies that use tumor-associated antigen (taa) vaccination and early detection of breast cancer are clinically being developed. breast cancer is caused by increased over expr...

In recent years, the number of recombinant proteins used for therapeutic applications and industry has increased dramatically. Recombinant proteins are produced in many host organisms (microbial, insect, plant and mammalian cells). There are many factors to consider when choosing the optimal system for protein expression and purification including the mass, purity or solubility of the recombina...

background: various prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems have been developed for the production of recombinant proteins. in the present study, we used a new protein expression system based on the iranian lizard leishmania, a trypanosomatid protozoan as a host, for the expression of lpg3 gene from leishmania infantum (l.infantum). methods: the lpg3 gene was cloned in the expression cass...

infectious bursal disease virus (ibdv) is the causative agent of gumboro disease, an infectious disease of global economic importance in poultry. the expression of heterologous proteins in p.pastoris is fast, simple and inexpensive. in this study, vp2 encoding gene of classical d78 ibdv was amplified using reverse transcription (rt) polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and cloned into ppiczαa vector...

In this study, our previously reported novel synthetic gene encoding 166 residues of interferon-? was used for an efficient expression of IFN-?. The synthetic gene was cloned into pET21a expression vector and transferred into E. coli. Recombinant protein was over-expressed in the E. coli. Identity of the recombinant protein was confirmed by western blot analysis. The recombinant protein was bio...

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 ...

Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is the causative agent of Gumboro disease, an infectious disease of global economic importance in poultry. The expression of heterologous proteins in P.pastoris is fast, simple and inexpensive. In this study, VP2 encoding gene of classical D78 IBDV was amplified using reverse transcription (RT) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned into pPICZαA vector...
