[Increased production of the protein antigen of Brucella melitensis in Escherichia coli K-12 cells].
The production of Brucella melitensis protein antigen with molecular weight of 38 kD in Escherichia coli K-12 cell lysates has been studied by immunoblotting with various antisera. E. coli strains differed by the vector plasmid and the size of B. melitensis 565 DNA fragment with 38 kD protein gene, cloned in this plasmid. The immunoblotting analysis detected increased production of 38 kD protein in the recombinant GSE830 strain in comparison with the B. melitensis strain 565, from which the gene was cloned, and other E. coli strains containing this protein gene. The production of 38 kD protein was determined by the size of the cloned B. melitensis 565 DNA fragment with this protein gene, but not by the conditions of culturing.
