Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine the BLS scaffold is assessed for in plants for recombinant vaccine development by N-terminally fusing BLS to bovine rotavirus VP8d and expressing the resulting fusion (BLS-VP8d) in Nicotiana tabacum chloroplasts. BLS-VP8d remains soluble and stable during all stages of plant development and even in lyophilized leaves stored at room temperature Brucella sp.

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
construction of a fusion protein with enzyme BLS and inner core domain (VP8d) of VP8 spike protein from bovine rotavirus, subcloning in Escherichia coli, expression of the BLS-VP8d fusion protein in Nicotiana tabacum cv. Petit Havana leaf chloroplasts to evaluate the possible use of this antigen for vaccine development Brucella sp.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function lumazine synthase from Brucella spp.is a highly immunogenic decameric protein which can accommodate foreign polypeptides or protein domains fused to its N-termini, markedly increasing their immunogenicity Brucella sp.
