background: transient and stable transformation of host plants are the common techniques to produce transgenic plants. however, the main drawback of stable transformation is the fact that it takes quite a long time to produce a transgenic line. while, transient gene expression is a quick method to produce recombinant proteins in plants.  objective: the main goal of the present study was to eval...

chlamydia trachomatis is one of the main causes of sexually transmitted diseases (stds) such as  prostatitis and epididymitis in men and cervicitis, endometriosis, vaginitis and ureogenital tract infections in women.  serological tests with sensitivities related to specific antigens are commonly used as  routine laboratory tests for diagnosis of chlamydia. in this research the chlamydia major o...

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...

conclusions our results showed that the recombinant protein produced by the pbad vector in the escherichia coli system was very efficient. background nontypeable haemophilus influenzae (nthi) is a significant pathogen in children, causing otitis media, sinusitis, conjunctivitis, pneumonia, and occasionally invasive infections. protein d (pd) belongs to the minor outer-membrane proteins of h. in...

objective(s):multi-epitopic protein vaccines and direction of vaccine delivery to dendritic cells (dcs) are promising approaches for enhancing immune responses against mutable pathogens. escherichia coli is current host for expression of recombinant proteins, and it is important to optimize expression condition. the aim of this study was the optimization of multi-epitopic hiv-1 tat/pol/gag/env ...

this paper reviews recent strategies used for increasing specific yield and productivity in high cell density cultures. high cell density cultures offer an efficient means for the economical production of recombinant proteins. however, there are still some challenges associated with high cell density cultivation (hcdc) techniques. a variety of strategies in several aspects including host design...

detection of plasmodium vivax specific antibodies with serological tests could be a valuable tool for epidemiological researches. whereas p. vivax cannot be simply obtained in vitro, serological tests using total or semi-purified antigens are infrequently used. given this restriction, the present study investigated whether recombinant p. vivax merozoite surface protein 1 (pvmsp-1 42 kda) could ...

objective(s): streptokinase (ska) is an antigenic protein which is secreted by streptococcus pyogenes. streptokinase induces inflammation by complement activation, which may play a role in post infectious diseases. in the present study, recombinant streptokinase from s. pyogenes was produced and showed that recombinant ska protein was recognized by infected human sera using western blot analysi...

objective: the incidence of breast cancer is approximately one million which makes this cancer one of the most common among women worldwide. breast cancer comprises 7% of the total death rate caused by cancers. several strategies that use tumor-associated antigen (taa) vaccination and early detection of breast cancer are clinically being developed. breast cancer is caused by increased over expr...
