Expanded serotyping scheme for Ureaplasma urealyticum strains isolated from humans.
For the last decade the serological heterogeneity of strains of Ureaplasma urealyticum isolated from humans has been represented by eight serotypes. We have identified two additional serotypes, strains Vancouver and Western. Using a modified metabolic inhibition test and a colony indirect epifluorescence method, we tested antisera to the above 10 types against the 11 members of the independent ...
متن کاملConstruction of an enantiopure bivalent nicotine vaccine using synthetic peptides
Clinical outcomes of anti-nicotine vaccines may be improved through enhancements in serum antibody affinity and concentration. Two strategies were explored to improve vaccine efficacy in outbred mice: the use of enantiopure haptens and formulation of a bivalent vaccine. Vaccines incorporating natural (-) nicotine haptens improved relative antibody affinities >10-fold over (+) haptens, stimulate...
متن کاملSynthetic Peptides as Protein Mimics
The design and generation of molecules capable of mimicking the binding and/or functional sites of proteins represents a promising strategy for the exploration and modulation of protein function through controlled interference with the underlying molecular interactions. Synthetic peptides have proven an excellent type of molecule for the mimicry of protein sites because such peptides can be gen...
متن کاملAffinity purification of synthetic peptides.
A general strategy and a specific tactic for affinity purification of polypeptides synthesized on solid supports are desbribed and demonstrated. The desired peptide chains were distinguished from terminated peptide chains before removal from the support by attachment of an affinity reagnet (cysteinyl-methionine) bearing an affinity group (thiol) and a binding group (carboxylic acid). After clea...
متن کاملAdvances in Synthetic Peptides Reagent Discovery
Bacterial display technology offers a number of advantages over competing display technologies (e.g, phage) for the rapid discovery and development of peptides with interaction targeted to materials ranging from biological hazards through inorganic metals. We have previously shown that discovery of synthetic peptide reagents utilizing bacterial display technology is relatively simple and rapid ...
