Expression of a human monoclonal anti-(rhesus D) Fab fragment in Escherichia coli with the use of bacteriophage lambda vectors.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A human anti-(rhesus D) antibody (IgG1 lambda) Fab fragment was cloned from an Epstein-Barr-virus-transformed cell line and expressed in Escherichia coli with the use of bacteriophage lambda vectors. The cloned protein is active in binding to human erythrocytes and permits the development of a recombinant reagent for the prevention of haemolytic disease of the newborn. The method offers a rapid and effective means of rescuing human Fabs from potentially unstable cell lines secreting human antibodies.

High-level expression of tetanus toxin fragment C in Escherichia coli
Fragment C is the C-terminal domain of the heavy chain of tetanus toxin that can promote the immune response against the lethal dose of this toxin. Therefore, this portion can be considered as a candidate vaccine against tetanus infection, which occurs by Clostridium tetani. The present study aimed to compare the expression of tetanus toxin fragment C in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) pLysS cells...

Background: Apoptin is a protein from chicken anemia virus that could induce apoptosis specifically in the cancer cells but it has not any effect in the normal cells. Phage therapy is a novel field of cancer therapy and phage nanobioparticles (NBPs) such as λ phage could be modified to deliver and express genetic cassettes into eukaryotic cells safely in contrast with animal viruses. The bacter...
متن کاملGeneration of diverse high-affinity human monoclonal antibodies by repertoire cloning.
Combinatorial libraries of antibody heavy and light chains derived from the peripheral blood lymphocytes of an individual immunized with tetanus toxoid have been expressed in Escherichia coli by using phage lambda vectors. Screening of the libraries allowed identification of a large number of human monoclonal Fab fragments specific for tetanus toxoid. Initial studies suggested considerable sequ...
متن کاملConstruction of the Recombinant Plasmid Expressing AID under the Control of Temperature-sensitive Promoter of Bacteriophage Lambda
Background and purpose: Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is a B-cell specific enzyme responsible for somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) of antibody genes within the B-cell follicle of peripheral lymphoid organs. Ectopic overexpression of the enzyme leads to mutations in non-B cells and Escherichia coli (E.coli) genes. However, induction of mutations in E...
متن کاملThe Over-Expression of Biologically Active Human Growth Hormone in a T5-Based System in Escherichia coli, Studying Temperature Effect
We studied the expression of human growth hormone (hGH) in E. coli under a bacteriophage T5-base promoter in a pQE30 expression vector. For an efficient expression of hGH cDNA, a number of codons at the hGH N-terminal coding region were altered based on the E. coli major codons. An over-expression of hGH in the bacteria, carrying the recombinant plasmids, was observed at 37°C in the presence of...
