Authors:M M Garaev  M R Bobkova  A F Bobkov  N V Lukashevich  E V Kazennova
Abstract:The results of cloning Corynebacterium diphtheriae phi 984 tox gene and its A and B subunits in Escherichia coli are presented. Regulatory sequences of tox gene are capable to promote effective expression in E. coli cells. A set of recombinant plasmids has been obtained which can determine the synthesis of A and B individual subunits and are suitable for constructing immunotoxins by gene engineering. The diphtheria toxin of 62 kDa synthesized in E. coli has enzymatic activity and reacts with antitoxin sera. Some sites for E. coli proteases are present in tox-specific polypeptides.
