brucellosis is a well-known domestic animal infectious disease, which is caused by brucella bacterium. the outer membrane protein 25 kda (omp25) gene plays an important role in simulating of tnf-α, ifn-α, macrophage, and cytokines cells. in the current study molecular cloning and expression analysis of omp25 gene for designing a subunit vaccine against brucella was investigated. amplifying the ...

due to the widespread applications of xylitol dehydrogenase, an enzyme used for the production of xylitol, the present study was designed for the cloning of xylitol dehydrogenase gene from glcunobacter oxydans dsm 2003. after extraction of genomic dna from this bacterium, xylitol dehydrogenase gene was replicated using polymerase chain reaction (pcr). the amplified product was entered into ptz5...

Alcanivorax borkumensis is a marine bacterium that has ability to grow on limited substrates that mainly is alkanes. The ability to use wide range of hydrocarbons is advantage of this bacterium to other marine community bacteria. A. borkumensis have two genetic systems for alkane biodegradation. The First system is alkane hydroxylase (alk-B1and alk-B2) and the second system is...

background: gamma -aminobutyric acid (gaba), a non-protein amino acid acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system of mammalians. the glutamate decarboxylase (gad) is responsible for the conversion of l-glutamate to gaba. the human brain has two isoforms of this enzyme, gad65 and gad67 that differ in molecular weight, amino acid sequence, antigenicity, cellular location ...

conclusions the results of the present study will increase our knowledge about molecular cloning and expression of the l. infantum kmp-11 gene, and this may be used as an effective target for controlling visceral leishmaniasis. results the kmp-11 gene was successfully subcloned in pcdna3 as a eukaryotic expression vector. recombinant kmp-11 protein was confirmed by the reverse transcriptase pol...

dna amplification using taq dna polymerase is one of the most widely used techniques in molecular biology and biotechnology. the aim of this study was to amplify the gene of this enzyme from a thermophilic bacteria called thermus aqauticus and clone it into a vector for future use. using specific primers the cdna of taq dna polymerase was amplified and ligated into the cloning vector ptz57r usi...

background: cholesterol oxidase (cho) has various clinical and industrial applications. recently, microbial cho have received a great attention for their wide usage in medicine. here, taxonomic characterizations of isolated strain from soil, optimization of the conditions for cho production and biochemical characterizations of produced cho enzyme were described. finally, cho gene was cloned int...

objective(s) nonviral vector can be an attractive alternative to gene delivery in experimental study. in spite of some advantages in comparison with the viral vectors, there are still some limitations for efficiency of gene delivery in nonviral vectors. to determine the effective expression, the recombinant escherichia coli lacz genes were cloned into the different variants of pcdna3.1 and then...
