Genetic and immunological analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis fibronectin-binding proteins.
Recombinant phage clones, TB1 and TB2, were selected from a Mycobacterium tuberculosis lambda gt11 DNA expression library by screening with a polyclonal antiserum raised against the antigen 85 complex of Mycobacterium bovis BCG. Analysis of recombinant DNA inserts and expressed fusion proteins showed that two new genes had been isolated. The product of clone TB2 was identified as a member of th...
متن کاملIdentification of fibronectin-binding proteins in Mycoplasma gallisepticum strain R.
We have determined that virulent Mycoplasma gallisepticum strain Rlow is capable of binding the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin. Fibronectin was found to be present in M. gallisepticum Rlow protein extracts by Western blotting and peptide sequencing. Mycoplasma gallisepticum Rhigh, the attenuated, high-passage derivative of Rlow, is deficient in this ability. MGA_1199, the M. gallisept...
متن کاملTreponema pallidum fibronectin-binding proteins.
Putative adhesins were predicted by computer analysis of the Treponema pallidum genome. Two treponemal proteins, Tp0155 and Tp0483, demonstrated specific attachment to fibronectin, blocked bacterial adherence to fibronectin-coated slides, and supported attachment of fibronectin-producing mammalian cells. These results suggest Tp0155 and Tp0483 are fibronectin-binding proteins mediating T. palli...
متن کاملRecognition and characterization of Erythropoietin binding-proteins in the brain of mice
Objective(s): Erythropoietin (EPO), is a 34KDa glycoprotein hormone, which belongs to type 1 cytokine superfamily. EPO involves in erythrocyte maturation through inhibition of apoptosis in erythroid cells. Besides its main function, protective effects of EPO in heart and brain tissues have been reported. EPO has a critical role in development, growth, and homeostasis of brain. Furthermore EPO h...
متن کاملFibronectin binding to a Streptococcus pyogenes strain.
In previous studies, Staphylococcus aureus has been shown to bind fibronectin (P. Kuusela, Nature (London) 276:718-720, 1978), an interaction that may be important in bacterial attachment and opsonization. Recently some strains of streptococci of serological groups A, C, and G were also found to bind fibronectin. The binding to one selected strain of Streptococcus pyogenes has been characterize...
