results the results showed that sensitivity and specificity were respectively 84.12% and 92% for‎ recombinant protein srs3 and 92% and 96% for rsag1. conclusions recombinant proteins srs3 and rsag1 are promising antigens in diagnostic assays for detection of specific antibodies against t. gondii. background infections by the protozoan parasite toxoplasma gondii (t. gondii) are widely prevalent ...

The causal gene of a novel small and round seed mutant phenotype (srs3) in rice was identified by map-based cloning and named the SRS3 gene. The SRS3 gene was grouped as a member of the kinesin 13 subfamily. The SRS3 gene codes for a protein of 819 amino acids that contains a kinesin motor domain and a coiled-coil structure. Using scanning electron microscopy, we determined that the cell length...

recombinant protein purification is a kind of sensitive and expensive method in genetics engineering. genetic manipulation leads to the expression of various proteins; it should be isolated with high purity finally. differed methods for protein purification are categorized, based on cast, quality, easy work and side effect of protein. in this article, we are investigating his his-tag protein pu...

a sweet water-soluble protein that reminds stable over wide ranges of temperature and ph, brazzein has various applications. its tastes like cane sugar but have no calories. however, the extraction of brazzein from its natural source is expensive and not applicable. in this study we used recombinant dna technology to provide an alternative option for cheaper mass production of brazzein. a brazz...

recombinant human interferon alpha 2a (rhifn α -2a) production and cell growth were monitored in a set of genetically modified e. coli strains (msd1519, msd1520, msd 1521, msd 1522, msd 1523) producing rhifn α -2a. the growth was followed at od 600 nm, changes in cell physiology were detected by pyrolysis mass spectrometry (pyms) of cell biomass and recombinant protein production was determined...

conclusions based on the findings, application of recombinant arcaga antigen for the detection of h. pylori infection is a simple, rapid, and brief non-invasive method. therefore, it can be suggested as an appropriate antigen for h. pylori detection kits. results we investigated caga protein, using the immunoblotting method in stool samples, which were already identified as positive by the appl...

background: interleukin-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine belonging to il-12 and il-23 families, secreted  by antigen presenting cells( apcs ) .the il-27 is composed of 2 subunits: epstein-barr virus induced gene 3 (ebi3) and p28. il-27 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine which has an inhibitory effect on th17 population and suppress the il-17 expression. it is suggested that il-27 could be a potent ...

white spot syndrome virus (wssv) is a highly pathogenic and prevalent virus affecting shrimp culture worldwide including iran. in the present study, a pair of primers was designed according to the sequence of vp 28 gene of wssv in the genbank. vp28 gene from an iranian wssv isolate (irvp28) was cloned, sequenced and expressed in escherichia coli bl21(de3) strain in order to produce vp28 protein...

conclusion: the newly produced recombinant protein bmk revealed to be immunogenic. moreover, anti-bmk antibodies produced in mice were able to recognize both the recombinant bmk neurotoxin and the one in m. eupeus crude venome. taken together, the molecular characterization and recombinant production of the iranian scorpion m. eupeus venom component can serve as a new probe for further studies ...

conclusions these results demonstrated that the recombinant lysostaphin produced in this study was able to kill nasal s. aureus in rats. it can be recommended for human clinical trial studies. results recombinant lysostaphin at 100 μg/ml concentration showed a significant decrease of the optical density compared to the control samples. the in vivo study demonstrated that a single dose (200 μg/d...
