Transfection Of Human Kidney Epithelial 293cells With Bacterial Cytosine-5-Methyltransferasem. Msp1 And The Sv40 Nuclear Localisationsequence Of Vp1, Öztürk Özdemi̇r

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

The aim of this study was to con-struct a plasmid that would direct the expres-sion of a bacterial DNA methyltransferase in cultured mammalian cells. It was carried out with a PCR-based strategy for introducing three components' coding sequences into the transfection vector pcDNA 3 (Invitrogen). The gene encoding the bacterial cytosine specific DNA methyltransferase M. Msp1 was first introduced into the general cloning vector pMTL23. Then, the coding sequence for glu-tathione- S-transferase was added into the upstream of human viral nuclear localisation sequences SV40 VPI of the prepared con-struct using the PCR technique. The complete synthetic fusion protein gene was …

Characterization Of Catalytic Phenotype Of \Beta-Galactosidasefrom Laci Mutant, E. Coli Csh-36,As A Tool For The Management Of Lactoseintolerance, Ayşegül Ayyildiz

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Objectives: Lactose intolerance is a common public health problem with 5-100% prevalance among different populations of the world. Use of \beta-galactosidase to reduce the lactose content in food or consumption of special products of milk or exogeneous lactase enzyme are among the approaches taken to manage lactose intolerance. Recombinant \beta -galactosidase as well as \beta -galactosidase derived from different sources have variances in their bioefficiency. Thermodynamic properties of \beta -galactosidase determines the industrial efficiency. In this \beta -galactosidase from E. coli CSH-36, a constitutive expressor of enzyme was investigated for enzyme biofunctionality. Methods: The enzyme was purified by cell lysis, …
