A DNA Spiegelmer to staphylococcal enterotoxin B.
Bacterial staphylococcal enterotoxin B is involved in several severe disease patterns and it was therefore used as a target for the generation of biologically stable mirror-image oligonucleotide ligands, so called Spiegelmers. The toxin is a 28 kDa protein consisting of 239 amino acids. Since the full-length protein is not accessible to chemical peptide synthesis, a stable domain of 25 amino ac...
متن کاملLaboratory Exposures to Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B
Staphylococcal enterotoxins are 23- to 29-kDa polypeptides in the bacterial superantigen protein family. Clinical symptoms from intoxication with staphylococcal enterotoxins vary by exposure route. Ingestion results in gastrointestinal symptoms, and inhalation results in fever as well as pulmonary and gastrointestinal symptoms. Review of occupational exposures at the U.S. Army Medical Research ...
متن کاملNeutralization of Staphylococcal enterotoxin B by aptamer
12 Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) is a major virulence factor for 13 Staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome (TSS). SEB activates a large subset of the T 14 lymphocytic population, releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines. Blocking 15 SEB-initiated toxicity may be an effective strategy for treating TSS. Using a 16 systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) process, we 17 iden...
متن کاملPurification of Type B Staphylococcal Enterotoxin.
Frea, James I. (University of Wisconsin, Madison), Elizabeth McCoy, and F. M. Strong. Purification of type B staphylococcal enterotoxin. J. Bacteriol. 86:1308-1313. 1963.-A procedure for the production and isolation of type B staphylococcal enterotoxin in yields up to 4 mg per liter of toxic culture is presented. Staphylococcus aureus S6 was grown in shake flask cultures at 37 C for 24 hr in a ...
متن کاملExtreme sensitivity of staphylococcal enterotoxin B and C production to inhibition by cerulenin.
Production of staphylococcal enterotoxins B and C was completely inhibited by concentrations of cerulenin (4 mug/ml and 2 mug/ml, respectively) that did not affect either growth rate or final growth density. Type A toxin formation was not similarly inhibited.
