expression of htlv-i p19 protein in an escherichia coli expression system always leads to the formation of inclusion body. solubilisation and refolding of the inclusion bodies is complex, time consuming and difficult during large-scale preparation. this study aimed to express and purify a soluble form of recombinant htlv-i p19 protein in an e. coli expression system. the synthetic dna encoding ...

the human papillomavirus l1 major capsid protein (hpv l1), the basis of the current vaccines, self-assembles into virus-like particles (vlps). herein, we describe the expression and purification of recombinant hpv16 l1 in e. coli system. the l1 protein was generated in a fused form using an inducible expression system. the recombinant gst-l1 fusion protein migrated as a 82 kda protein in sds-pa...

Background: Recombinant vaccine technology is one of the most developed means in controlling infectious diseases. However, an effective vaccine against Shigella is still missing. Objective: To evaluate recombinant IpaC protein of Shigella as a vaccine candidate. Methods: In this study we cloned IpaC gene into an expression vector in prokaryotic system. The protein expression was evaluated by SD...

background: echinococcosis or hydatid disease is a zoonotic infection caused by larval (metacestode) stages of cestodes belonging to the genus echinococcus, family taeniidae . we aimed to subclone antigen b gene in pqe-30 plasmid, its expression, and purification. methods: we subcloned hi gene into pqe-30 expression vector. the recombinant vector was transformed into e. coli , m15 and mass cult...

Background: Pilot and large-scale production of recombinant proteins requires the presence of stable clones capable of producing large quantities of recombinant proteins. Not only the process of selecting stable clones is time consuming, but also the continuous culturing of clones in large-scale production may cause loss of incoming plasmid and recombinant genes. Thus, considering the advanceme...

background: the purpose of this study was to clone, express, and purify a novel multidomain fusion protein of micobacterium tuberculosis (mtb) in a prokaryotic system. methods: an hspx/esxs gene construct was synthesized and ligated into a pgh plasmid, e. coli top10 cells were transformed, and the vector was purified. the vector containing the construct and pet-21b (+) plasmid were digested wit...

Brucellosis is caused by the bacterium Brucella and affects various domestic and wild species. GroEL (Heat Shock Protein 60kDa) as one of the major antigens that stimulate the immune system, increases Brucella survival. The aim of the current study was to clone and express GroEL in Escherichia coli in order to design subunit vaccine. Amplifying was performed using specific primers. The full-len...

introduction: neisseria meningitidis is a major causative agent of bacterial septicemia and meningitis in human. pora is a major component of the outer membrane of n. meningitidis and functions as a cationic porin. this study aimed to clone and determine the expression of pora as the first step for producing a proper antigen in a vaccine study against n. meningitidis. methods: an approximately ...
