[ 1 ] - In silico design and expression of a novel fusion protein of HBHA and high antigenic region of FAP-P of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in Pichia pastoris

Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is the etiologic agent of Johne's disease in ruminants and there has been a shift in the public health approach to MAP and human diseases like Crohn's disease. The prevention of infection by MAP in ruminants is thought to deter the high impact of economic losses in the level of dairy industry and possible spreading of this pathogen in dairy prod...

[ 2 ] - Goat paratuberculosis in Shiraz: Histopathological and molecular approaches

In the present study, Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) was investigated in goats slaughtered in Shiraz abattoir using histopathological examinations and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Ilium and mesenteric lymph node samples from 66 suspected goat carcasses to Johne’s disease were collected. Among 66 examined slaughtered goats, nine (13.63%) goats were positi...

[ 3 ] - A novel chimeric recombinant protein PDHB-P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool

The aim of this study was to construct, expression of a novel recombinant chimeric protein consisting of Pyruvate dehydrogenase beta subunit (PDHB) and high antigenic region of integral membrane lipoprotein P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool. The full-length sequence of pdhb and a portion of antigenic regions of P80 were selected and analyzed by CLC ma...
