Epitope-based protein expression in Escherichia coli can be improved by adjusting its amino acid composition and encoding genes. To that end, we analyzed 24 recombinant epitope proteins (rEPs) that carry multiple epitopes derived from VP1 protein of foot-and-mouth disease virus. High level expression of the rEPs was attributed to a high content of Arg, Asn, Asp and Thr, a low content of Gln, Pro and...
HER2/neu peptide-based vaccines can eliminate human tumors overexpressing the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu), but the efficacy of this therapeutic strategy is suboptimal. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are capable of eliciting efficient cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses by cross-presentation. To evaluate whether immunization with a HSP65–HER2 fusion peptide could selectively...
BCG Hsp65 and PADRE have been shown to be potent to enhance antigen specific immunity. In order to explore the possibility to utilize them for the development of HBV therapeutic vaccine, a chimeric protein, Hsp65-HBV, was created by fusing PADRE and epitopes from HBV to the carboxyl-terminus of BCG Hsp65 and expressed in E. coli. We evaluated its effects on human dendritic cell maturation and specific...
