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...

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...

Bovine ephemeral fever is an acute and arthropod-borne viral disease of cattle and water buffalo which occurs seasonally in most of the world tropical and subtropical regions. The epizootic feature of the disease has been reported in Iran with serious economic consequences. The surface glycoprotein G of bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV) is composed of 4 antigenic sites (G1-G4) and plays the m...

A sweet water-soluble protein that reminds stable over wide ranges of temperature and pH, Brazzein has various applications. Its tastes like cane sugar but have no calories. However, the extraction of brazzein from its natural source is expensive and not applicable. In this study we used recombinant DNA technology to provide an alternative option for cheaper mass production of brazzein. A brazz...

background and aims: since the produced recombinant proteins by molecular genetics techniques commonly have some limitations in the application, chimeric protein are introduced. chimeric proteins have found widespread application for the study of protein folding, structure stability, function and immunogenisity. methods: according to the known immunomodulatory effect and structure of hsp70 mole...

one of the emerging therapeutic strategies for targeted treatment of most cancers is the use of immunotoxins which are fusion proteins consisted of a targeting and a toxic moieties. we previously showed that the recombinant a254-gmcsf fusion protein selectively kills acute myeloblastic leukemia cells which harbor a large number of granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (gmcsf) recepto...

background and objectives: hbha and mtb32c have been isolated from culture supernatants of mycobacterium tu- berculosis (m. tuberculosis) and mycobacterium bovis (m. bovis) and their immunogenicity previously studies have been confirmed. in this study, capability of constructed vector containing two mycobacterial immunodaminant antigens (mt- b32c-hbha), in producing new chimeric protein under t...
