Epitope mapping of the d flagellar antigen of Salmonella muenchen
Infection and Immunity
|September 1, 1991
Abstract:
Contiguous exposed antibody-binding regions of the antigen d flagellin of Salmonella muenchen were identified by using octameric peptides synthesized on polyethylene pins. Identification was confirmed by the serological activity of immunoglobulins recovered from specified pin peptides. Peptides equivalent to four regions of the d flagellin reacted with three different sera tested.

Tagging and Fusion Proteins
Proteins are involved in several cellular processes and biochemical reactions. Analyzing a specific protein of interest requires it to be isolated from the other proteins in the cell. This is achieved by overexpressing the specific gene in a suitable host to produce large quantities of the target protein. A tag or label is recombined with the gene to produce a fusion protein containing the target protein and the tag. The tags on these fusion proteins can then be used for easy detection and...
Special Staining Techniques
Specialized staining techniques play a vital role in microbiology by enabling the visualization of specific bacterial structures that remain undetectable with standard microscopy methods. These techniques not only enhance the structural visualization of bacterial cells but also provide critical insights into their pathogenicity and classification. Additionally, they support diagnostic and research endeavors in microbiology by identifying key bacterial features.Capsule Staining for Virulence...
