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...

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: Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a novel recombinant eukaryotic expression system with many advantages including fast growth rate, rapid scalability, absence of human pathogens and the ability to fold and assemble complex proteins accurately, however, obstacle relatively low expression level necessitates optimizing foreign gene expression in this system. The Green Fluorescent Protein (G...

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...

vp2 gene coding region of a vaccinal strain (d78) of infectious bursal disease virus (ibdv) was clonedin a eukaryotic expression vector, psec tag2a. the gene was placed downstream of ig κ chain leadersequence, under the control of human cytomegalovirus (hcmv) immediate early enhancer and promoter. theconstruct psec tag2a-vp2 was transfected in cos-7 cell line and the expression and secretion of...

results cloning and subcloning of the flic gene were confirmed by colony pcr, restriction enzymes digestion and dna sequencing of the recombinant plasmids pprime-flic and pvax-flic. the expression of flagellin protein in eukaryotic cells was approved by immunofluorescence assay (ifa), western blotting analysis and the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) method. conclusions t...

background: luteinizing hormone (lh) was secreted by the stimulating cells of the testes and ovaries in the anterior pituitary gland. the application of this hormone is in the treatment of men and women with infertility and amenorrhea respectively. m aterials and methods: in the present study the alpha and beta subunits of human lh gene were cloned into the pegfp-n1 expression vector and produc...
