background and aims: since the produced recombinant proteins by molecular genetics techniques commonly have some limitations in the application, chimeric protein are introduced. chimeric proteins have found widespread application for the study of protein folding, structure stability, function and immunogenisity. methods: according to the known immunomodulatory effect and structure of hsp70 mole...

Background: Formation of secondary structure such as DNA hairpins or loops may influence molecular genetics methods and PCR based approaches necessary for genetic engineering, in addition to gene regulation. Materials and Methods: A polymerase chain reaction with splice overlap extension (SOE-PCR) was used to create fully synthetic 1F5 chimeric anti-CD20 heavy- and light-chain genes. The chi...

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease in human and animals. Brucella melitensis is one of the most pathogenic species of Brucella in goat and sheep. Omp31 is an outer membrane protein of Brucella that acts as an immunogenic protein. Cytokines are glycoproteins with low molecular weight that play the role of an immune adjuvant and regulate immune responses. Interleukin-2 is one of the most important...

Fusion of two genes at DNA level produces a single protein, known as a chimeric protein. Immunotoxins are chimeric proteins composed of specific cell targeting and cell killing moieties. Bacterial or plant toxins are commonly used as the killing moieties of the chimeric immunotoxins. In this investigation, the catalytic domain of Shiga-like toxin (A1) was fused to human granulocyte macrophage ...

background and objectives: hbha and mtb32c have been isolated from culture supernatants of mycobacterium tu- berculosis (m. tuberculosis) and mycobacterium bovis (m. bovis) and their immunogenicity previously studies have been confirmed. in this study, capability of constructed vector containing two mycobacterial immunodaminant antigens (mt- b32c-hbha), in producing new chimeric protein under t...

conclusions real-time pcr and elisa showed high levels of production of 1a/jfh1 chimeric hcv in the huh7.5 cell culture. the constructed virus can be used for future studies, including the development of new hcv drugs and vaccines. background the e2 glycoprotein is an important encoded hepatitis c virus (hcv) protein that contains three different variable regions. objectives the aim of the pres...

Background: Anthrax is a particularly dangerous infectious disease that affects humans and livestock. Efficacious vaccines that can rapidly induce a long-term immune response are required to prevent anthrax infection in humans. Domains 4 and 1 of the protective antigen (PA) and lethal factor (LF), respectively, have very high antigenic properties. Aims: In this...
