Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is one of the devastating plant viruses in the world that infects more than 200 plant species. Movement protein plays a supportive role in the movement of other plant viruses, and viral coat protein is highly expressed in infected plants and affects replication and movements of TMV. In order to investigate genetic variation in the terminal fragment sequence in Iranian...

infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) is a contagious pathogen in fowl that results in economic loss in the poultry industry. in this study, the amino acids sequences of three structural proteins m, n, and s1 for five iranian ibv isolated during 1998-2011 have been analyzed. conserved and variable regions, hydrophobic characteristics and identity matrix were determined after alignment by bioedit ve...

Surface and interfacial activity of whey protein isolate-gellan gum conjugate as a function polymerization degree

background: the advent of recombinant dna technology has facilitated heterologous expression of proteins from various sources in different host systems including escherichia coli. if a plant virus coat protein is expressed in the bacterium it can be used as the antigen for antibody preparation. such a recombinant antigen preparation can be particularly useful where equipment such as ultracentri...
