Plasmids coding for colonization factor antigen I and heat-stable enterotoxin production isolated from enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli: comparison of their properties.
We examined seven enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains which produced colonization factor antigen I (CFA/I). Four of these strains were from South Africa (three serotype O78:H12 and one serotype O63:H-), one was from Ethiopia (O78:H12), and two were from Bangladesh (O78:H11 and O78:H12). Plasmids coding for CFA/I were mobilized from six of these strains by using resistance or enterotoxin fa...
متن کاملPlasmids coding for heat-labile enterotoxin production isolated from Escherichia coli O78: comparison of properties.
Nineteen enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains of serogroup O78, isolated in different geographical areas from humans with diarrheal diseases, were tested for their ability to transfer enterotoxin production. All of the strains originally produced heat-labile enterotoxin, and 16 also produced heat-stable enterotoxin and colonization factor antigen I. Plasmids coding for the production of hea...
متن کاملMonoclonal antibodies against different epitopes on colonization factor antigen I of enterotoxin-producing Escherichia coli.
Hybridoma-secreting monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against colonization factor antigen I (CFA/I) were produced by the fusion of spleen cells from immunized BALB/c mice with F/O myeloma cells. The 25 MAbs with the highest antibody titer against CFA/I, as determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, were studied for specificity and the capacity to agglutinate CFA/I-carrying bacteria. Most of...
متن کاملProduction of MAG1 Antigen of Toxoplasma gondii in Escherichia coli
Introduction : Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic infection caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii it leads to serious medical problems in congenitally-infected and immunocompromised individuals, while it is quite harmless in immunocompetent individuals. Toxoplasma tissue cyst matrix protein (MAG1) induces early humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. Previous studies suggested recombinant M...
متن کاملMapping of a plasmid, coding for colonization, factor antigen I and heat-stable enterotoxin production, isolated from an enterotoxigenic strain of Escherichia coli.
The non-autotransferring plasmid NTP113 codes for production of colonization factor antigen I and heat-stable enterotoxin, NTP113, which has a molecular weight of 58 X 10(6), was digested with BamHI, EcoRI, and HindIII and combinations of these restriction endonucleases, and the products of these digestions were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results were used to construct a parti...
