recombinant human interferon alpha 2a (rhifn α -2a) production and cell growth were monitored in a set of genetically modified e. coli strains (msd1519, msd1520, msd 1521, msd 1522, msd 1523) producing rhifn α -2a. the growth was followed at od 600 nm, changes in cell physiology were detected by pyrolysis mass spectrometry (pyms) of cell biomass and recombinant protein production was determined...

objective: helicobacter pylori is a spiral, microaerophilic gram negative bacterium, that multiplies and causes infection in human gastric mucosal layer. h.pylori infection, followed by destruction of gastric epithelial tissue, leads to gastric chronic inflammation, which can cause gastric and peptic ulcers. new approaches have focused on using specific treatments, such as immunotherapy, to era...

conclusions based on the findings, application of recombinant arcaga antigen for the detection of h. pylori infection is a simple, rapid, and brief non-invasive method. therefore, it can be suggested as an appropriate antigen for h. pylori detection kits. results we investigated caga protein, using the immunoblotting method in stool samples, which were already identified as positive by the appl...

Regarding high potential of green plants for development of recombinant vaccines, this research was conducted to evaluate expression of a novel recombinant vaccines against Foot and Mouth Disease (FMDV) in tobacco plant. For this purpose, a synthetic gene encoding 129-169 amino acids of foot and mouth disease virus capsid protein VP1 was transferred to tobacco plant via Agrobacterium-mediated g...

chicken infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) causes severe respiratory and renal dysfunction in chickens. in the present study, we used reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) to amplify the nucleocapsid (n) protein gene of strain massachusetts (mass) h120 of ibv that is commonly used in the vaccine production in iran. the pcr product with the expected size of 1.2 kb was cloned in...

Background: Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) complexes consist of neurotoxin and neurotoxin-associated proteins. Hemagglutinin-33 (HA-33) is a member of BoNT type A (BoNT/A) complex. Considering the protective role of HA-33 in preservation of BoNT/A in gastrointestinal harsh conditions and also its adjuvant role, recombinant production of this protein is favorable. Thus in this study, HA-33 was expr...

Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is a very dangerous livestock disease which causes a serious loss in the production of milk and meat. Therefore, producing an effective recombinant subunit vaccine virus this disease is of great importance. Transient gene expression is a valuable tool to reach rapid and acceptable recombinant vaccine. An Agrobacterium-mediated transient gene expression assay was car...
