Chemotactic Activity Generated by Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1971
Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) has significant toxicity for several mammalian species by both oral and parenteral routes. When highly purified SEB was incubated for 1 hr at 37 C with fresh serum from normal young adult men with little or no antibody activity for SEB, a factor(s) chemotactic for human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) was formed ...

Antimicrobial Activity and Action Mechanism of Thymoquinone against Bacillus cereus and Its Spores

open access: yesFoods, 2021
In this study, thymoquinone (TQ), a natural active substance, was investigated for its antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus, and its inhibitory effect on B. cereus in reconstituted infant formula (RIF) was evaluated. In addition, the inhibitory

A DNA Spiegelmer to staphylococcal enterotoxin B [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2003
Bacterial staphylococcal enterotoxin B is involved in several severe disease patterns and it was therefore used as a target for the generation of biologically stable mirror-image oligonucleotide ligands, so called Spiegelmers. The toxin is a 28 kDa protein consisting of 239 amino acids.

Binding to The Target Cell Surface Is The Crucial Step in Pore Formation of Hemolysin BL from Bacillus cereus

open access: yesToxins, 2019
A major virulence factor involved in Bacillus cereus food poisoning is the three-component enterotoxin hemolysin BL. It consists of the binding component B and the two lytic components L1 and L2.

Fusion of Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin and heat-labile enterotoxin B subunit [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1987
The 3' terminus of the DNA coding for the extracellular Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) devoid of transcription and translation stop signals was fused to the 5' terminus of the DNA coding for the periplasmic B subunit of the heat-labile enterotoxin (LTB) deleted of ribosomal binding sites and leader peptide.
