for high-throughput production of recombinant protein in escherichia coli ( e. coli ), besides important parameters such as efficient vector with strong promoter and compatible host, other important issues including codon usage, rare codons, and gc content specially at n-terminal region should be considered. in the current study, the effect of decreasing the percentage of gc nucleotides and opt...

Leishmaniasis is a major infectious disease of considerable public health in more than 86 countries around the world. Several approaches toward vaccine development against this disease have been taken. Glycoprotein (gp63) is conserved among diverse species of Leishmania and has induced immunological responses in murine models. Therefore, this glycoprotein has been considered as a second generat...

results cloning and subcloning of the flic gene were confirmed by colony pcr, restriction enzymes digestion and dna sequencing of the recombinant plasmids pprime-flic and pvax-flic. the expression of flagellin protein in eukaryotic cells was approved by immunofluorescence assay (ifa), western blotting analysis and the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) method. conclusions t...

expressions of recombinant proteins for different applications are important objectives in molecular biotechnology; however, expression of some recombinant proteins is difficult. several methods have been designed for expression of these proteins. the aim of this study was to construct a vector containing mtb32c fragment of mycobacterium tuberculosis (m.tuberculosis) as a fusion partner in orde...

It is possible to use transgenic plants, as bioreactors, for the production of recombinant inexpensive chemicals and drug components. Transient gene expression is an appropriate alternative to stable transformation because it allows an inexpensive and rapid method for expression of recombinant proteins in plant tissues. In recent years, plant viral vectors have been increasingly developed as su...

objective: today, aids is considered as a global problem and many efforts to generate an effective vaccine against this disease have been made, but remain inconclusive. dna vaccines are a member of the new generation of vaccines that can efficiently stimulate the immune system. however, recent findings indicate low immunogenicity for these vaccines and it is believed that these types of vaccine...

objective(s) lipocalin 2 (lcn2) is a 25-kda glycoprotein that has initially been extracted from neutrophil granules. expression of lcn2 is induced under various pathophysiological conditions. it is also known as an early marker of kidney and heart injury. high-level expression of recombinant lcn2 neutrophil gelatinase-associated(ngal) in insect cells was the aim of this study. materials and met...
