Purification of heat-labile enterotoxin from an enterotoxin from an enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli of human origin by monoclonal immunoaffinity chromatography.

چکیده
Heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) was purified from an enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli 015H11 of human origin. The purification steps included French pressure cell disruption of the bacteria, salting-out, DEAE-Sephacel on chromatography. Application of this procedure resulted in a 95.1-fold purification of LT with a yield of 19.9% as determined by rabbit ileal loop assay. The final LT preparation showed only one protein-staining band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, indicating that the purified LT was homogeneous.

Objective(s): Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is known as the most common bacterial causes of diarrheal diseases related to morbidity and mortality. Heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) is a part of major virulence factors in ETEC pathogenesis. Antigen entrapment into nanoparticles (NPs) can protect them and enhance their immunogenicity.Materials and Methods: In the present study, recombinant L...

Cholera enterotoxin (CT) and heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) produced by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli share a common antigenic determinant. In addition, CT and LT each have a unique antigenic determinant. Antisera were prepared by immunoaffinity chromatography against these unique antigenic determinants, that is, antiserum that reacted with CT but not with LT and antiserum that reacted with LT...

After removal of total B subunit and heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) from crude cell extracts of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (HB 101-EWD 299) by Bio-gel A 5 m column chromatography, the crude cell extract was shown to contain a free A subunit (A' subunit) that did not bind to the coligenoid of the B subunits. The A' subunit was found to be immunologically identical to the A subunit of holo-LT...
