Tumor-associated autoantibody signature for the early detection of gastric cancer
2012
Autoantibodies against tumor-associated antigens are very attractive biomarkers for the development of noninvasive serological tests for the early detection of cancer because of their specificity and stability in the sera. In our study, we applied T7 phage display-based serological analysis of recombinant cDNA expression libraries technique to identify a representative set of antigens eliciting humoral responses in patients with gastric cancer (GC), produced phage-antigen microarrays and exploited them for the survey of autoantibody repertoire in patients with GC and inflammatory diseases. We developed procedures for data normalization and cutoff determination to define sero-positive signal…
Evaluation of T7 and lambda phage display systems for survey of autoantibody profiles in cancer patients.
2008
In the current study we attempted to evaluate the suitability of T7 Select 10-3b and lambdaKM8 phage display systems for the identification of antigens eliciting B cell responses in cancer patients and the production of phage-displayed antigen microarrays that could be exploited for the monitoring of autoantibody profiles. Members of 15 tumour-associated antigen (TAA) families were cloned into both phage display vectors and the TAA mini-libraries were immunoscreened with 22 melanoma patients' sera resulting in the detection of reactivity against members of 5 antigen families in both systems, yet with variable sensitivity. T7 phage display system showed greater sensitivity for the detection …
Transcriptional analysis of the nitrile‐degrading operon from Rhodococcus sp. ACV2 and high level production of recombinant amidase with an Escherich…
1999
Northern blotting analysis with RNA probes derived from amidase and nitrile hydratase genes from Rhodococcus sp. ACV2 revealed that both genes are part of the same operon. RNase protection mapping and sequence analysis indicated that the operon is probably under the control of a sigma 70-like promoter located upstream from the amidase gene. Plasmids were constructed with the cloned genes under tac and lac promoter control. Expression of amdA was demonstrated in Escherichia coli. In another construction, the amdA gene was inserted under the control of the bacteriophage T7 promoter. Large amounts of recombinant amidase (at least 20% of total proteins) in a soluble and active form were obtaine…
