objective(s): production of a recombinant and immunogenic antigen using dengue virus type-3 envelope protein is a key point in dengue vaccine development and diagnostic researches. the goals of this study were providing a recombinant protein from dengue virus type-3 envelope protein and evaluation of its immunogenicity in mice. materials and methods: multiple amino acid sequences of different i...

trichophyton rubrum (t. rubrum) is an anthropophilic dermatophyte that is distributed worldwide and causes common cutaneous disease such as mycosis. although several properties of this fungus have been investigated so far, however a few studies were carried out in the field of molecular biology of this fungus. in the present study we tried to identify its molecular characterization of the goano...

very little is known about lhr and fshr genes of domestic dromedary camels. the main objective of this study was to determine and analyze partial genomic regions of fshr and lhr genes in dromedary camels for the first time. to this end, a total of 50 dna samples belonging to dromedary camels raised in iran were sent for sequencing (25 samples of each gene). we compared the nucleotide sequences ...

aroa is an important gene which produces aromatic amino acids essential for bacterial life. the sequence of this gene was shown to be different in bacteria, so the purpose of this study was sequencing of aroa gene in native e. coli o78: k80 to determine the putative differences between this strain and other e. coli o78: k80 strains in gene bank. pcr was used to amplify aroa gene in native e. co...

The main objective of this study was to determine and analyze partial genomic regions of FSHR and LHR genes in dromedary camels for the first time. To this end, a total of 50 DNA samples belonging to dromedary camels raised in Iran were sent for sequencing (25 samples of each gene). We compared the nucleotide sequences ...

The genomic and cDNA clones encoding cellobiohydrolase II (CBHII) have been isolated and sequenced from a native Iranian isolate of Trichoderma parceramosum, a high cellulolytic enzymes producer isolate. This represents the first report of cbhII gene from this organism. Comparison of genomic and cDNA sequences indicates this gene contains three short introns and also an open reading frame codin...

Background: Cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) has been extensively considered as an immunogenic and adjuvant protein, but its yield of expression is not satisfactory in many studies. The aim of this study was to compare the expression of native and mutant recombinant CTB (rCTB) in pQE vector. Methods: ctxB fragment from Vibrio cholerae O1 ATCC14035 containing the substitution of mutant ctxB for ami...
