objective: chronic myeloid leukemia (cml) is a malignant clonal disorder of hematopoietic stem cells which results in increase of myeloid cells, erythroid cells and platelets in the peripheral blood and hyperplasia in bone marrow. investigations have shown different types of bcr- abl variants in these patients. in iran only 3 types of these variants have been identified because most of the clin...

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...

Designing and producing a proper fusion construction is the most important problem of producing large quantities of a properly folded functional protein. This construction should have all necessary components of a real gene. A good designed fusion gene construction could be cloned into a good and suitable host. Clostridium perfringens is an important pathogen of humans and livestock and produce...

Background & Objective: A main contest in chemotherapy is to obtain regulator above the biodistribution of cytotoxic drugs. The utmost promising strategy comprises of drugs coupled with a tumor-targeting bearer that results in wide cytotoxic activity and particular delivery. The B-subunit of Shiga toxin (STxB) is nontoxic and possesses low immunogenicity that exactly binds to t...

Fusion protein technology represents the strategy to achieve rapid, efficient, and cost-effective proteinexpression. Epsilon and Beta toxins are the most potent Clostridial toxins and cause disease in animals.This study describes in silico fusion of Clostridium perfringens types D and B epsilon and beta toxin genesthat was used for cloning in E.coli. The etx and cpb genes were...

In the majority of Philadelphia (Phi-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients, the c-ab/ gene is fused to the bcr gene, resulting in the transcription of an 8.5 kb chimeric bcr-ab/ mRNA. which is translated into a fusion protein. In about 50% of the Ph-positive acute lymphoid leukemias (ALL), the bcr-ab1 gene fusion is identical to CML, while in 50% an alternative fusion between these t...

The PML-RARα fusion gene disrupts the retinoic acid differentiation signal in a range of leukaemia types, promoting proliferation. We designed a shRNA to target the fusion mRNA, and the shRNA expression cassette was delivered via lentiviral transduction. Delivery of this shRNA significantly down regulated the target mRNA, with effects also evident at the protein level. When combined with ATRA a...
