The heat-resistant agglutinin family includes a novel adhesin from enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 60A.
Heat-resistant agglutinin 1 (Hra1) is an accessory colonization factor of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) strain 042. Tia, a close homolog of Hra1, is an invasin and adhesin that has been described in enterotoxigenic E. coli. We devised a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism screen for the associated genes and found that they occur among 55 (36.7%) of the enteroaggregative E. ...
متن کاملEscherichia coli serogroup O111 includes several clones of diarrheagenic strains with different virulence properties.
Genetic variation among isolates of Escherichia coli O111 obtained mostly from patients with diarrhea in Brazil was assessed by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis to characterize chromosomal genotypes and by gene probes and adherence assays to characterize virulence properties. Among the 152 isolates, we resolved 16 distinct electrophoretic types (ETs), which differed on average at 40% of the en...
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 کاملHigh level expression of a truncated chicken progesterone receptor in Escherichia coli.
Using a novel Escherichia coli system we have successfully overexpressed a region of the chicken progesterone receptor which encodes both the DNA- and hormone-binding domains. The expression system produces the truncated receptor fragment as an in-frame fusion with ubiquitin. This strategy greatly enhances both the solubility and stability of fusion proteins expressed in E. coli. Synthesis has ...
متن کاملIn silico Design of Truncated Omp31 Protein of Brucella melitensis: Its Cloning and High Level Expression in Escherichia coli
Introduction: Omp31 is animmunodominant and protective antigen conserved in Brucella species and a good candidate for vaccine design. Material & methods: The present study aimed at in silico design of the truncated Omp31 (TOmp31) using bioinformatic tools and to express the selected form in Escherichia coli (E. coli) Results and conclusion: Various bioinformatically calculated scores for the ...
