objective(s):multi-epitopic protein vaccines and direction of vaccine delivery to dendritic cells (dcs) are promising approaches for enhancing immune responses against mutable pathogens. escherichia coli is current host for expression of recombinant proteins, and it is important to optimize expression condition. the aim of this study was the optimization of multi-epitopic hiv-1 tat/pol/gag/env ...

background: enterocin-p of enterococcus faecium p13 (entp) is of great interest as a food preservative and medicine due to its non-toxicity and broad antimicrobial spectrum in various ph, as well as its excellent thermal stability. however, recombinant production of entp is still in laboratory because of low productivity and complex purification process. objectives: in this study, we aimed to d...

background pe5 is a member of the pe protein family whose precise function is yet to be understood. there are about 100 members of the pe family proteins in mycobacterium tuberculosis. these glycine- and alanine-rich proteins consist of proline-glutamate motifs at their n-termini and may be implicated in pathogenesis of the bacilli. objectives we aimed to clone and over-express the rv0285 codin...

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 ...

Efforts to express lipase in the periplasmic space of Escherichia coli have so far been unsuccessful andmost of the expressed recombinant lipases accumulate in the insoluble cell fraction. To evaluate the role ofnative and heterologous signal peptides in translocation of the lipase across the inner membrane of E. coli,the lipase gene (btl2) was cloned downstream of the native ...

Background and Amis: Serological assay is considered as one of the best choices for conducting large number of infection tests. Recombinant DNA technology has been used for expression of virus coat protein (CP) gene in prokaryotic bacterial cells such as Escherichia coli and the recombinant CP (rCP) is used as immunogen in antibody production. Heterologous CP protein expression and purification...

  Introduction: Omp31 is animmunodominant and protective antigen conserved in Brucella species and a good candidate for vaccine design. Material & methods: The present study aimed at in silico design of the truncated Omp31 (TOmp31) using bioinformatic tools and to express the selected form in Escherichia coli (E. coli) Results and conclusion: Various bioinformatically calculated scores for the ...
