Rana catesbeiana ribonuclease (RC-RNase) is a pyrimidine-guanine sequence-specific ribonuclease found in R. catesbeiana (bullfrog) oocytes. It possesses both ribonuclease activity and cytotoxicity against tumor cells. We report here for the first time the cloning of RC-RNase cDNA from liver rather than from oocytes where RC-RNase is stored. An internal fragment of cDNA was obtained by reverse t...
Overproduction of genetically engineered antibodies, such as single-chain antibodies (scAbs) in Escherichia coli often results in insoluble and inactive products known as inclusion bodies. We now report that fusion or co-expression of FkpA, the E. coli periplasmic peptidyl-prolyl-isomerase with chaperone activity, substantially improves soluble and functional expression of scAbs. Anti-human bla...
Dickeya dadantii is a broad host range phytopathogenic bacterium provoking soft rot disease on many plants including Arabidopsis. We showed that, after D. dadantii infection, the expression of the Arabidopsis BOS1 gene was specifically induced by the production of the bacterial PelB/C pectinases able to degrade pectin. This prompted us to analyze the interaction between the bos1 mutant and D. d...
Thermolysin, a representative zinc metalloproteinase from Bacillus thermoproteolyticus, is synthesized as inactive pre-proenzyme and receives autocatalytic cleavage of the peptide bond linking the pro- and mature sequences. The conventional expression method for recombinant thermolysin requires the autocatalytic cleavage, so that production of a mutant thermolysin is affected by its autocatalyt...
1 Bacterial infections causing mastitis in sheep can result in severe economic losses for farmers. A 2 large survey of milk samples from ewes with mastitis in Sardinia, Italy, indicated an increasing 3 prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. It has been shown previously that during 4 chronic, biofilm-associated infections P. aeruginosa populations diversify. We report the 5 phenotypic ...
Human pancreatic ribonuclease (HP-RNase) has considerable promise as a therapeutic agent. Structure-function analyses of HP-RNase have been impeded by the difficulty of obtaining the enzyme from its host. Here, a gene encoding HP-RNase was designed, synthesized, and inserted into two expression vectors that then direct the production of HP-RNase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (fused to either an u...
BACKGROUND Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) belong to the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, and play an important role in bone metabolism. Recombinant forms of BMP-2 and BMP-7 are the only BMPs used clinically. In this study the mature part of human bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) was engineered through substitution of the BMP-7 N-terminal sequence by heparin-binding site...
The insect-vectored disease malaria is a major world health problem. New control strategies are needed to supplement the current use of insecticides and medications. A genetic approach can be used to inhibit development of malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.) in the mosquito host. We hypothesized that Pantoea agglomerans, a bacterial symbiont of Anopheles mosquitoes, could be engineered to expre...
Clostridium cellulovorans uses not only cellulose but also xylan, mannan, pectin, and several other carbon sources for its growth and produces an extracellular multienzyme complex called the cellulosome, which is involved in plant cell wall degradation. Here we report a gene for a cellulosomal subunit, pectate lyase A (PelA), lying downstream of the engY gene, which codes for cellulosomal enzym...
Several methods were used to create soluble forms of a single chain antibody (scFv S1) that binds to the surface of the grape strains of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf). S1 fused to a pelB leader and secreted from E. coli. These forms were not secreted correctly and could not bind Xf in an ELISA. Maltose binding protein fusions of S1 were soluble and could be used to detect Xf in an ELISA. We also succ...
