cyanogen/fever

The gene encoding protein p17, a major structural protein of African swine fever virus, has been mapped and sequenced. Protein p17 was purified from dissociated virus by reverse-phase HPLC and the amino acid sequence of a peptide obtained after digestion of protein p17 with cyanogen bromide was

The defined antigen substrate sphere system is a simple method for detecting antigen or antibody in the circulation. The technic is based on the coupling of antigen or antibody with Sepharose 4B beads that have been activated by cyanogen bromide. In this study the activated beads were exposed to

Brain abscesses can cause significant morbidity in patients with cyanogen heart disease. In countries with limited resources treatment, it is difficult and prognosis is guarded. Here we report a case of brain abscesses revealing a rare form of cyanogen heart disease, the trilogy of Fallot, in

A monoclonal antibody, designated B-14, inhibits the nonspecific T lymphocyte mitogenicity of toxic-shock-syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1), and the antibody binds to an internal cyanogen bromide (CNBr) fragment (Mr, 14,000) of the toxin. The epitope recognized by B-14 was further localized to include a

Salmonella paratyphi A, the second most common cause of enteric fever in Southeast Asia, is a habitant of and a pathogen for humans only. Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are both essential virulence factors and protective antigens for systemic infections caused by groups A, B, C, and D nontyphoidal

The present study examined the effect of hypoxia on protein synthesis by porcine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAEC). Hypoxia decreased protein synthesis in PAEC, but two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of [35S]methionine-labeled PAEC proteins demonstrated the increased synthesis of a set of

The variable major proteins (VMP) of serotypes 7 and 21 of the relapsing fever agent Borrelia hermsii were isolated by detergent extraction and high performance liquid chromatography. Cyanogen bromide (CNBr) digestion of the isolated VMP yielded two peptides of apparent molecular weights 20,000 (20

Amyloid fibrils were isolated by extraction in deionized water from the kidneys of an Abyssinian cat with familial renal amyloidosis. The fibrils were suspended in a buffer containing 6 M guanidine hydrochloride and reduced and alkylated using dithiothreitol and iodoacetid acid. The resulting

We determined the complete nucleotide sequence of the small (S) RNA segment of Uukuniemi virus, the prototype of the Uukuvirus genus within the Bunyaviridae family. The RNA, which is 1,720 nucleotides long, contains two nonoverlapping open reading frames. The 5' end of one strand (complementary to
