ESCHERICHIA COLI HEAT-LABILE TOXIN B SUBUNIT: CONSTRUCTION AND EVALUATION OF PLASMIDS PROVIDING CONTROLLED HIGH LEVEL PRODUCTION OF THE PROTEIN
With the plasmid DNA from a clinical isolate of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) H 10407 as template, PCR-mediated cloning of the sequence encoding the heat-labile toxin B subunit (L T -B) has been carried out. Then this sequence was recloned into the pTrc 99A and pET23a expression vectors to give the pJasmids pTRCLTB and pETLTB, respectively. After induction, the former plasmid provides...
متن کاملConstruction and Expression of a Fused Gene for B Subunit of the Heat-Labile and a Truncated Form of the Heat-Stable Enterotoxins in Escherichia coli
Elaboration of different toxins by enterotoxigenic E. coli has been considered as one of the main virulence factors contributing to the manifestation of disease caused by these microorganisms. Various strategies have been employed to raise antibodies against these toxins as a line of defense. In this study, the 3’ terminus of the gene that codes for the binding subunit of the heat-labile entero...
متن کاملImmunogenicity of a Fusion Protein Comprising Coli Surface Antigen 3 and Labile B Subunit of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Background: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains are the major causes of diarrheal disease in humans and animals. Colonization factors and enterotoxins are the major virulence factors in ETEC pathogenesis. For the broad-spectrum protection against ETEC, one could focus on colonization factors and non-toxic heat labile as a vaccine candidate. Methods: A fusion protein is composed of a...
متن کاملModulation of B lymphocyte signalling by the B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin.
The non-toxic B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (EtxB) is a potent mucosal adjuvant and immunomodulator capable of blocking autoimmune disease. These effects are linked with its ability to modulate lymphocyte populations--a feature that is dependent on binding to ubiquitously expressed cell surface receptors. Here, we demonstrate that EtxB can trigger up-regulated expression...
متن کاملOral immunization with an attenuated Salmonella Gallinarum mutant as a fowl typhoid vaccine with a live adjuvant strain secreting the B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin
BACKGROUND The Salmonella Gallinarum (SG) lon/cpxR deletion mutant JOL916 was developed as a live vaccine candidate for fowl typhoid (FT), and a SG mutant secreting an Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin B subunit (LTB), designated JOL1229, was recently constructed as an adjuvant strain for oral vaccination against FT. In this study, we evaluated the immunogenicity and protective propertie...
