Immunogenic and Protective Potentials of Recombinant Receptor Binding Domain and a C-Terminal Fragment of Clostridium botulinum Neurotoxin Type E
Clostridium Botulinum Type E neurotoxin heavy chain consists of two domains: the translocation domain asthe N-terminal half and the binding domain as the Cterminal half (Hc). One effective way to neutralize botulinum neurotoxin is to inhibit binding of this toxin to neuromuscular synapses with antibodies against binding domain. Two synthetic genes, coding for Hc (the full length binding d...
متن کاملPiracetam inhibits the lipid-destabilising effect of the amyloid peptide Abeta C-terminal fragment.
Amyloid peptide (Abeta) is a 40/42-residue proteolytic fragment of a precursor protein (APP), implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. The hypothesis that interactions between Abeta aggregates and neuronal membranes play an important role in toxicity has gained some acceptance. Previously, we showed that the C-terminal domain (e.g. amino acids 29-42) of Abeta induces membrane perm...
متن کاملSubstrate binding induces depolymerization of the C-terminal peptide binding domain of murine GRP78/BiP.
To investigate the role of each domain in BiP/GRP78 function, we have used a full-length recombinant BiP engineered to contain two enterokinase sites; one site is located after an N-terminal FLAG epitope, and a second site has been inserted at the junction between the N- and C-terminal domains (FLAG-BiP.ent). FLAG-BiP.ent oligomerizes into multiple species that interconvert with each other in a...
متن کاملFusion and sequence analysis of the influenza A (H9N2) virus M2e and C-terminal fragment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis HSP70 (H37Rv)
The present study was aimed to construct a fusion plasmid harboring the extracellular domain of the influenza A M2-protein (M2e), which was fused to the N-terminus of the truncated HSP70 (HSP70359–610) molecule as a new approach for future vaccine research against influenza A. The amplified fragments, M2e and HSP70359-610 genes, were gel-purified. The products were then single digested with Bam...
متن کاملCopper-binding properties of bovine serum albumin and its amino-terminal peptide fragment.
A 24-residue peptide, called the “Asp” fragment, has been isolated from a peptic digest of bovine serum albumin. This peptide has the same terminal sequence, Asp-Thr-, as does bovine serum albumin, and will similarly bind a single ion of copper at its terminal o-amino group. Spectral and titrimetric data are reported which suggest that the Cu(II)-binding site for both albumin and peptide is a c...
