Cloning and expression of the L-phenylalanine dehydrogenase gene, from B. sphaericus in E. coli were done. The gene was cloned in the vector pET16b and transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). The functional form of the L-phenylalanine dehydrogenase enzyme was purified by affinity purification techniques, taking advantage of the ability of this enzyme to bind to the nucleotide site affinity dye, Re...

background: influenza virus is the major cause of lower respiratory tract illnesses on the worldwide. vaccination can be an effective tool to prevent its outbreak. highly conserved viral nucleoprotein is an effective vaccine candidate to provide heterosubtypic immunity, offering resistance against various influenza virus strains. m aterials and methods: in present research np gene was inserted ...

Introduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major public health problem which influences about 170 million people worldwide. Different types of vaccines have been designed using HCV structural proteins to control the viral infection. The core nucleocapsid protein is one of the most conserved proteins and a desirable target for HCV vaccines, especially the protein-based vaccines. In cur...

objective(s): use of a positron emission tomography (pet)/single-photonemission computed tomography (spect) system facilitates the simultaneousacquisition of images with fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18f-fdg) andtechnetium (99mtc)-tetrofosmin. however, 18f has a short half-life, and 511kev compton-scattered photons are detected in the 99mtc energy window.therefore, in this study, we aimed to ...

human interferon β (inf-β) is a member of cytokines family which different studies have shown its immunomodulatory and antiviral activities. in this study an expression vector was designed and constructed for expression of human inf-β-1b either in shake flasks and bench top bioreactor. the designed vector was constructed based upon pet-25b(+) with t7 promoter. recombinant human beta interferon ...

Alcanivorax borkumensis is a marine bacterium that has ability to grow on limited substrates that mainly is alkanes. The ability to use wide range of hydrocarbons is advantage of this bacterium to other marine community bacteria. A. borkumensis have two genetic systems for alkane biodegradation. The First system is alkane hydroxylase (alk-B1and alk-B2) and the second system is...

background: vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) is a coordinate regulator of physiological angiogenesis during embryogenesis, skeletal growth and reproductive functions. there are several types of vegf, including vegf165. vegfs stimulate endothelial cell growth, angiogenesis, and capillary permeability. low induction temperature is a major factor for expression of the recombinant vegf165 ...
