SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLY(D,L-LACTIC-CO-GLYCOLIC)ACID MICROPARTICLES LOADED BY DIPHTHERIA TOXOID [PDF]
Biotechnologia Acta, 2018 The aim of the study was to synthesize poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) particles — PLGA and obtain their complexes with a non-toxic diphtheria toxin recombinant fragment subunit B fused with enhanced green fluorescent protein EGFP-SubB; to characterize ...

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2023 Background Diphtheria is a severe respiratory or cutaneous infectious disease, caused by exotoxin producing Corynebacterium diphtheriae, C. ulcerans and C. pseudotuberculosis. Diphtheria is once again prevalent due to breakdown of immunisation programmes,

Conformational Switching of the Diphtheria Toxin T-Domain [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2010 The diphtheria toxin T domain translocates the catalytic C domain across the endosomal membrane in response to acidification. To elucidate the role of histidine protonation in modulating pH-dependent membrane action of the T domain, we have used site-directed mutagenesis coupled with spectroscopic and physiological assays.

The Action of Diphtheria Toxin on Mice [PDF]
Journal of Hygiene, 1922 1. For the particular toxin tested, the intravenous m.l.d. for mice was 60 times and the intramuscular m.l.d. for mice 100 times, the guinea-pig sub cutaneous m.l.d.2. Antitoxin has the same neutralising power for toxin in mice as in guinea-pigs.

Diphthamide synthesis is linked to the eEF2‐client chaperone machinery
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The diphthamide modification of eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 (eEF2) is important for accurate protein synthesis. We addressed the potential coordination of de novo eEF2 synthesis with simultaneous or subsequent diphthamide modification. Our work reveals that the co‐chaperones Hgh1 and Cpr7, which are known to support folding of nascent ...
