A procedure for the separation and purification of DNA-dependent RNA polymerases [EC 2.7.7.6] from macronuclei of Tetrahymena pyriformis is described. We have used it to isolate and characterize the class I enzyme. RNA polymerase I was identified by its resistance against alpha-amanitin and its location in nucleoli. The purified enzyme consists of at least 12 major subunits with approximate molecular weights of 180,000, 118,000, 37,500, 36,000, 29,000, 27,500, 20,000, 18,500, 15,600, 14,500, 13,500, and 12,600. Chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex separated two forms of RNA polymerase I which differed in the presence of an additional polypeptide of 25 kDa. Independently of this polypeptide, the enzyme was found to segregate on DNA cellulose into a binding and a non-binding fraction. This type of heterogeneity was found to be unrelated to differences in molar ratios or molecular weights of the enzyme subunits. The catalytic properties of all enzyme subfractions were very similar and complied with the general characteristics of RNA polymerase I [cf. Roeder, R.G. (1976) in RNA Polymerase (Losick, R. & Chamberlin, M., eds.) pp. 285-329, Cold Spring Harbor Publ. Co., New York]. 相似文献

Productivity and some properties of anti-Human Rotavirus (HRV) hen egg yolk antibody (IgY) were compared with those of anti-HRV rabbit serum antibody (IgG). The hens immunized with HRV (Wa strain, serotype 1 and Mo strain, serotype 3) were found to continuously to lay eggs without any change in the egg laying rate and the yolk of the eggs laid over a year showed a high level of neutralization titer against HRV. The production of anti-HRV IgY by a hen (one year) was at least 15 times (anti-Wa) and 120 times (anti-Mo) more effective than those by an immunized rabbit in the neutralization titer of the antibodies.The stability of anti-HRV IgY at temperature above 70°C and low pH 2–3 was less than that of anti-HRV rabbit IgG. The temperature corresponding to the maximum of denaturation endotherm (Tmax) of IgY was 73.9°C while that of rabbit IgG was 77.0°C in the analysis by differential scanning calorimetry. This discrepancy in heat and acidic pH stability found between the two antibodies as discussed with regard to their protein structures. 相似文献

Casein kinase II (CK-2) is a ubiquitous serine/threonine protein kinase, and is localized to both the cell nucleus and cytoplasm. Despite extensive biochemical similarities in their properties, there is evidence that the two forms of the enzyme exhibit certain distinctions (1). This prompted us to produce antibodies against CK-2, which could be utilized as a possible tool for investigations of the various forms of this enzyme. Specific polyclonal antibodies against the rat liver cytosolic CK-2 were raised in egg yolk of laying hens; the enzyme had repeatedly failed to elicit an immunogenic response in rabbits. The purified polyclonal antibody (egg yolk immunoglobulin, IgY) recognized all three subunits (42, 38, and 28 kDa) of the enzyme in immunoblots. The antibody when bound to a matrix was capable of removing CK-2 from solution, and the bound enzyme could be recovered from the immunoaffinity matrix with 0.1 M diethylamine. The antibody exhibited a high affinity towards CK-2 prepared from cytosol of liver, ventral prostate, and several other rat tissues, but no immunoreactivity was detected towards a number of other protein kinases tested. The subunits of the nuclear form of CK-2 (PK-N2) migrated differently when electrophoresed in parallel in the same gel. However, the antibody did cross-react with the various subunits of PK-N2 suggesting a significant homology in the immunogenic domains in the various subunits of the two forms of the enzyme. 相似文献

The objective is to prevent and treat injuries caused by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from gram negative bacteria in animals and
humans, we produced antibodies against LPS from egg yolk. LPS from E. coli (O111:B4) mixed with Freund’s Adjuvant was used as the immunogen to immunize Roman hens. Immunized eggs were collected, and
immunoglobulin Y (IgY) was purified using a water solution, salt precipitation and gel chromatography. The molecular weight
and purity were determined by SDS–PAGE, the antibody titer by noncompetitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and
antibody activity against LPS by the mortality of mice intraperitoneally injected with LPS or LPS-IgY solutions. IgY against
LPS showed two protein bands at 68 and 26 kDa on the gel; the antibody titer was almost 1:25,600. After incubation with LPS,
IgY decreased the mortality of mice challenged with LPS. This study provided an efficient way to produce high-titer egg yolk
antibodies, which could attenuate lethal effects of LPS, by immunizing hens. Furthermore, the LPS antibody was purified well
using a water solution, salting-out and gel chromatography. 相似文献

Ouabain is a bioactive hapten and is very difficult to be accurately quantified because of the lack of useful reagents. Furthermore, where ouabain is produced in the adrenal glands has not been identified. In this study, ouabain-BSA was generated for immunizing the laying hens to generate ouabain-specific IgY antibodies in chicken eggs. The anti-ouabain IgY antibodies were detected in eggs 1 week after the last immunization and their concentrations increased with time. The highest concentrations of anti-ouabain IgY antibodies reached at 1:10,240 for ELISA 5 weeks after immunization and maintained for 4 weeks in chicken eggs. Following PEG precipitation, an average of 8.5 mg of anti-ouabain IgY antibodies with a purity of 87.6% was achieved from a single egg. Further analysis revealed that the anti-ouabain IgY antibodies had little immunoreactivity to hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, cedilanid, and digoxin, indicating their high specificity, and the purified IgY antibodies effectively detected endogenous ouabain in the cytoplasm of cells predominately in the zona reticularis of rat and human adrenal glands, indicating their high immunoreactivity. Given that IgY has an unique structure and bioactive features, the generated anti-ouabain IgY antibodies may be used as a new reagent for accurately quantifying ouabain in biological studies. 相似文献

AbstractIn order to evaluate the possibility of using IgY as the secondary antibody in immunoassay, specific IgY (1: 128,000) was generated by immunizing hens with mouse serum IgG purified by protein A column. IgY was extracted from egg yolk by polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG-6000), and further purified using protein M affinity chromatography column. The purified IgY was conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and fluorescein?isothiocyanate (FITC), in that order. The reactivity of conjugated antibodies was evaluated by ELISA, Western blot and Immunofluorescence, demonstrating that the obtained IgY was able to conjugate with enzymes, react with mouse primary IgG antibody, and subsequently amplify the antigen-antibody signals in different immune reaction conditions, in a comparable secondary effect to conventional goat anti-mouse IgG antibody. The obtained conjugated antibodies showed high stability in broad pH ranges (4–10; >70%) and high thermostability at 37?°C for 84?h (>85%). Despite the need to further consider and evaluate the industrial standardization and production process, our data provided the primary evidence that conjugated IgY antibodies can be used as a secondary antibody for broad immunological analysis. 相似文献

Immunization with naked DNA was used to elicit chicken egg yolk antibodies (IgY). Layer hens were inoculated with plasmid DNA encoding the enhanced green fluorescent protein, the fusion protein of Newcastle disease virus, and VP2 of African horse sickness virus. IgY was extracted from egg yolks by polyethylene glycol precipitation. Specific antibodies were present in the yolks of eggs from hens immunized with each of the three different plasmids. This approach to raising polyclonal antibodies obviates the need to produce and purify large quantities of proteins for immunization and can potentially yield large amounts of diagnostically or therapeutically useful reagents. 相似文献

This study was conducted to measure Candida albicans-specific chicken egg yolk antibody (IgY) inhibition of fluconazole-sensitive and resistant strains of C. albicans in order to assess potential use in the prevention and treatment of oral candidiasis. In this study, laying hens were immunized, and IgY was extracted by water dilution. The Minimal Inhibitory Concentrations (MICs) of IgY for inhibiting C. albicans growth were determined using the broth microdilution method from the CLSI M27-A2 protocol. Fluconazole (FLC) was used as the control. The results were analyzed with the chi(2) test. The anti-Candida titer of anti-C. albicans IgY was 1:12,000. The concentration of the IgY extract that effectively inhibited the growth of C. albicans was between 1.25 g/l and 5.0 g/l, and the efficacy rate was 82.98% during the observed 24-48 h time period. No correlation was recorded between the drug resistance of FLC and growth inhibition by IgY. It was concluded that anti-C. albicans IgY inhibited the growth of C. albicans in vitro and there was no correlation between the drug resistance of FLC and the growth inhibition by IgY (P > 0.99). 相似文献

The isolation of polyclonal antibodies from the serum of immunized mammals has significantly contributed to scientific research and diagnosis. The fact that recent technologies allow the production of antibodies in the yolk of eggs laid by hens, has led to the development of an alternative method for antibody generation that is less stressful to animals. As hens are kept under almost all their natural conditions, antibodies are isolated from the collected eggs; this technology is expected to become an interesting alternative to the conventionally serum-based techniques that eventually require to sacrifice the animal.Here we present a modified protocol for the isolation of IgY antibodies from immunized chickens and provide comparison between two chicken breeds in relative to IgY yield per egg. Our results show the possibility of generating large quantities of highly pure IgY from chicken eggs and also show large differences in the yield of IgY production between the two studied breeds. The results of this work indicate that IgY technology can be used for the production of primary antibodies for immunological work and disease diagnosis. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the potential for polyclonal antibodies targeting enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) virulence determinants to prevent colonization of host cells by E. coli O157:H7. METHODS AND RESULTS: Rats and laying hens were immunized with recombinant proteins from E. coli O157:H7, EspA, C-terminal intimin or EscF. Rat antisera (IgG) or chicken egg powders (IgY) were assessed for their ability to inhibit growth and colonization-associated processes of E. coli O157:H7. Mammalian antisera with antibodies to intimin, EspA or EscF effectively reduced adherence of the pathogen to HeLa cells (P<0.05) and prevented type III secretion of Tir. Similarly, HeLa cells treated with chicken egg powder containing antibodies against intimin or EspA were protected from EHEC adherence (P<0.05). Neither egg nor rat antibody preparations had any antibacterial effect on the growth of EHEC (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Antibody preparations targeting EHEC adherence-associated factors were effective at preventing adhesion and intimate colonization-associated events. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This work indicates that immunotherapy with anti-adherence antibodies can reduce E. coli O157:H7 colonization of host cells. Passive immunization with specific antibodies may have the potential to reduce E. coli O157:H7 colonization in hosts such as cattle or humans. 相似文献

X-ray quality crystals which diffract to high resolution (less than or equal to 1.9-2.1 A) have been grown of an anti-peptide Fab and its complex with a 9-residue peptide antigen. Both crystals are monoclinic P2(1), with unit cell dimensions a = 90.3 A, b = 82.9 A, c = 73.4 A, beta = 122.5 degrees for the native Fab and a = 63.9 A, b = 73.0 A, c = 49.1 A, beta = 120.6 degrees for the complex. The peptide sequence corresponds to residues 100-108 of all influenza virus hemagglutinins (HA1) of the H3 subtype (1968-1987). The peptide antigen has been well characterized immunologically (Wilson, I.A., Niman, H.L., Houghton, R.A., Cherenson, A.R., Connolly, M.L., and Lerner, R.A. (1984) Cell 37, 767-778; Wilson, I.A., Bergmann, K.F., and Stura, E.A. (1986) in Vaccines '86 (Channock, R.M., Lerner, R.A., and Brown, F., eds) pp. 33-37, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, NY), structurally, as a free peptide by NMR (Dyson, J.H., Cross, K.J., Houghton, R.A., Wilson, I.A., Wright, P.E., and Lerner, R.A. (1985) Nature 318, 480-483; Dyson, J.H., Lerner, R.A., and Wright, P.E., (1988) Annu. Rev. Biophys. Chem. 17, 305-324), as part of the intact antigen by x-ray crystallography (Wilson, I.A., Skehel, J.J., and Wiley, D. C. (1981) Nature 289, 366-373) and by binding studies to the HA molecule (White, J.M., and Wilson, I.A. (1987) J. Cell Biol. 105, 2887-2896). Knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of the complex will elucidate the details of how anti-peptide antibodies recognize a small peptide antigen and provide insights into the recognition of the same sequence in the intact protein antigen. As both native Fab and the peptide-Fab complex have been crystallized, we can also determine in addition whether changes in the structure of the antibody accompany antigen binding. The nucleotide sequence of the mRNA coding region of the anti-peptide Fab has been determined to provide the amino acid sequence ultimately required for the high resolution three-dimensional structure determination. 相似文献

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) causes high mortality and large economic losses in cultured shrimp. The VP28, VP19 and VP15 genes encode viral structural proteins of WSSV. In this study, hens were immunized with recombinant plasmid (pCI-VP28/VP19/VP15) with linkers or with inactivated WSSV, which used CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODNs) and Freund's adjuvant as adjuvant, respectively. Egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) from hens immunized with inactivated vaccine and DNA vaccine was obtained, purified and used for protection of Metapenaeus ensis shrimp against WSSV. The data showed that the antibody response of the hens immunized with the DNA vaccine was improved by CpG ODNs as adjuvant, but was still inferior to inactivated WSSV in both sera and egg yolks. Using specific IgY from hens immunized with inactivated WSSV and DNA vaccine to neutralize WSSV, the challenged shrimp showed 73.3% and 33.3% survival, respectively. Thus, the results suggest that passive immunization strategy with IgY will be a valuable method against WSSV infection in shrimp. 相似文献

Following genetic immunization of laying ducks with a plasmid expressing Helicobacter pylori UreB (large subunit of urease), IgY against UreB were obtained from egg yolks. These polyclonal and monospecific IgY antibodies are of higher-titer and specifically recognize recombinant H. pylori urease purified from Escherichia coli. To our knowledge this is the first report describing generation of IgY antibodies directed against antigens of H. pylori by DNA-based immunization. 相似文献

Shiga toxins produced by Escherichia coli O157:H7 cause a wide spectrum of enteric diseases, such as lethal hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome. In this study, the B subunit protein of Shiga toxin type 1 (Stx1) was produced in the E. coli system, was further purified by Ni-column Affinity Chromatography method, and was then used as an immunogen to immunize laying hens for yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) production. Titers of IgY increased gradually with boosting vaccination and, finally, reached a level of 105, remaining steady over 1 year. Then the protective efficacy of IgY against Stx1 was evaluated by in vitro and in vivo experiments. It was shown that the anti-Stx1 IgY could effectively block the binding of Stx1 to the Hela cells and could protect BALB/c mice from toxin challenges. The data indicates the facility of using egg yolk IgY as a therapeutic intervention in cases of Shiga toxin intoxication. 相似文献

Cross-reactivity among four species of ruminal bacteria was examined by using egg yolk antibodies from immunized Leghorn laying hens and an enzyme-linked-immunosorbent assay. The effects of the four species on the hens were compared on various days postimmunization. Hens injected with the same bacterial species had similar apparent antibody levels over the entire postimmunization period, but only Bacteroides ruminicola B1(4) and Selenomonas ruminantium D antigens elicited early increases in apparent antibody levels during weeks 2 and 3. Antibody cross-reactivity was greatly reduced by week 2, except for antibodies against Streptococcus bovis JB1. 相似文献
