Polyionic Tags as Enhancers of Protein Solubility in Recombinant Protein Expression

Polyionic and cysteine-containing fusion peptides as versatile protein tags.

In response to advances in proteomics research and the use of proteins in medical and biotechnological applications, recombinant protein production and the design of specific protein characteristics and functions has become a widely used technology. In this context, protein fusion tags have been developed as indispensable tools for protein expression, purification, and the design of functionali...

Evaluation of expression and titration of recombinant nucleocapsid protein as an immunogenic candidate against SARS-CoV2

Introduction: Covid-19 epidemic results from an infection caused by SARS-CoV2. Evolution-based analyses on the nucleotide sequences show that SARS-CoV2 is a member of the genus Beta-coronaviruses and its genome consists of a single-stranded RNA, encoding 16 proteins. Among the structural proteins, the nucleocapsid is the most abundant protein in virus structure, highly immunogenic, with sequenc...

Expression of Recombinant Protein B Subunit Pili from Vibrio Cholera

Background & Aims: Vibrio cholerae is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen that causes cholera disease. Following ingestion by a host and entry into the upper intestine, V. cholera colonizes and begins to emit enterotoxin. One of the most pathogenic factors of Vibrio cholera is toxin-coregulated pili (TCP). ToxinCoregulated pili is as the primary factor requiered for the colonization and insisten...

Recombinant VP1 Protein of FMD Virus Type O/IRN/2010 as an Immunogenic Peptide Expression System

Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is highly contagious disease among cloven-hoofed animals. FMD virus has structural and non-structural proteins. Vp1 is the most immunogenic structural peptides of FMD virus, applied for major vaccine studies. Objective: Construction of Pet28-VP1 cassette for FMD virus type O/IRN/2010 and expression VP1 peptide as the most immunogenic antigen was the aim of this stud...
