Post-infectional biochemical changes due to Xanthomonas campestris pv. mori (Xcm) infection in five elite mulberry varieties viz., $S_1$, $S_{1635}$, $V_1$, RF $S_{175}$ and JRH was studied under inoculated condition. It was revealed that total soluble sugar and protein content was significantly declined in all the varieties due to X. campestris infection. Total phenol content was at par prior to inoculation in all varieties, but it was significantly increased in $S_1$, RF $S_{175}$, $S_{1635}$ and JRH 7 days after inoculation. The correlation coefficient (r) between total soluble sugar and total phenol content was found positive (r = 0.825) and statistically significant. Similarly, correlation coefficient (r) between total soluble protein and phenol content was found positive (r = 0.897) and statistically significant. The present study indicates that X. campestris infected leaves are nutritionally inferior in quality and the duration of phenol production in a mulberry variety play decisive role on disease resistance.nce.

Richadella dulcifica, a native shrub in tropical West Africa, gives red berries that have the unusual property of modifying a sour taste into a sweet taste. The red berries contain a taste-modifying protein named miraculin. A synthetic gene encoding miraculin was placed under the control of constitutive promoters and transferred to lettuce. High expression of miraculin was obtained, with accumulation of up to 1% total soluble protein in lettuce leaf. In addition, the miraculin expressed in lettuce possesses a taste-modifying activity.

SecA protein which has a pivotal role in the preprotein cranslocation across the inner membrane of Escherichia coli is a water-soluble protein with an unusual property of penetrating the membrane readily. An interesting and important question is what structural characteristics of SecA enables its ready penetration of lipid bilayer. The conformational properties of SecA in solution at 3$0^{\circ}C$, pH 7.5 were observed by hydrogen-tritium (HT) exchange, and denaturant-induced denaturation/renaturation and thermal unfolding.

Silk proteins from Nephila clavipes are fibrous proteins containing repetitive sequences with both crystalline and amorphous domains. In order to obtain high-level production of silk protein, the synthetic genes had 16 contiguous units of the consensus repeat sequence of the silk protein were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) under the strong inducible T7 promoter. For production of recombinant silk protein in large amounts, pH-stat fed-batch cultures were carried out. The recombinant silk protein was produced as soluble forms in E. coli, and the recombinant silk protein content was as high as 11% of the total protein. When cells were induced at $OD_{600}$ of 60, the amount of silk protein produced was 6.49 g/L. After simple purification steps, 9.2 mg of silk protein that was more than 80% pure was obtained from a 50 mL culture, and the recovery yield was 26.3%.

Ryanodine receptor (RyR) is one of the two major $Ca^{2+}$ channels in membranes of intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ stores and is found in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), endoplasmic reticulum (ER). RyR1 is also the major calmodulin-binding protein of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. Residues 4064-4210 in the RyR1 polypeptide chain has similar primary sequence with calmodulin (CaM) and was designated as CaM-like domain (CaMLD). When expressed as a recombinant peptide, CaMLD showed several CaM-like properties in previous studies. Still, previous studies of CaMLD were focused on protein-protein interactions rather than its own properties. Here, we studied the expression of CaMLD and its sub-domains corresponding to each lobe of CaM in Escherichia coli. CaMLD could be obtained only as inclusion body, and it was refolded using urea solubilization followed by dialysis. Using spectroscopic approaches, such as NMR, circular dichroism, and gel filtration experiment, we found that the refolded CaMLD exists as nonspecific aggregate, even though it has alpha helical secondary structure. In comparison, the first half of CaMLD (R4061-4141) could be obtained as natively soluble protein with thioredoxin fusion. After the removal of the fusion tag, it exhibited folded and helical properties as shown by NMR and circular dichroism experiments. Its oligomeric status was different from CaMLD, existing as dimeric form in solution. However, the second half of the protein could not be obtained as soluble protein regardless of fusion tag. Based on these results, we believe that CaMLD, although similar to CaM in sequence, has quite different physicochemical properties and that the second half of the protein renders it the aggregative properties.

Utilization of soluble protein recovered from surimi wastewater using calcium powder of cuttle bone were examined. The crude ash content of the heat-induced surimi gel was increased linearly by increasing substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC toward commercial surimi. Moisture (approximately $76\%$) and lipid $(0.2\%)$ contents were not change, but their protein contents were decreased 15.7 to $14.3\%$ depend on increasing of substitution ratio. The white index of the heat-induced surimi gel by color meter was increased up to $10\%$ of substitution ratio. There were no difference between $0\%\;and\;5\%$ substituted surimi gel in the gel strength. The sensory score on white index and texture of the heat-induced surimi gel did not change in 0 to $10\%$ as a substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC toward commercial surimi, while decreased in more $15\%.$ The optimal substitution ratio of recovered protein-ATC as a bulking agent was $10\%.$ The heat-induced surimi gel prepared with $10\%$ substitution of recovered protein-ATC was similar to the content and composition of total amino. acids, and superior to calcium content and the ratio of calcium and phosphorus toward those of commercial surimi.

The rat is an accepted model for studying human psychiatric/neurological disorders. We provide a protocol for total soluble protein extraction using trichloroacetic acid/acetone (TCA/A) from rat (female) whole brain, 10 brain regions and the pituitary gland, and show that two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DGE) using precast immobilized pH (4-7) gradient (IPG) strip gels (13 cm) in the first dimension yields clean silver nitrate stained protein profiles. Though TCA/A precipitation may not be "ideal", the important choice here is the selection of an appropriate lysis buffer (LB) for solubilizing precipitated proteins. Our results reveal enrichment of protein spots by use of individual brain regions rather than whole brain, as well as the presence of differentially expressed spots in their proteomes. Thus individual brain regions provide improved protein coverage and are better suited for differential protein detection. Moreover, using a phosphoprotein-specific dye, ingel detection of phosphoproteins was demonstrated. Representative high-resolution silver nitrate stained proteome profiles of rat whole brain total soluble protein are presented. Shortcomings apart (failure to separate membrane proteins), gel-based proteomics remains a viable option, and 2-DGE is the method of choice for generating high-resolution proteome maps of rat brain and brain regions.

Heat-labile enterotoxin B subunit (LTB) of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is both a strong mucosal adjuvant and immunogen. It is a subunit vaccine candidate to be used against ETEC-induced diarrhea. It has already been expressed in several bacterial and plant systems. In order to construct yeast expressing vector for the LTB protein, the eltB gene encoding LTB was amplified from a human origin enterotoxigenic E. coli DNA by PCR. The expression plasmid pLTB83 was constructed by inserting the eltB gene into the pYES2 shuttle vector immediately downstream of the GAL1 promoter. The recombinant vector was transformed into S. cerevisiae and was then induced by galactose. The LTB protein was detected in the total soluble protein of the yeast by SDS-PAGE analysis. Quantitative ELISA showed that the maximum amount of LTB protein expressed in the yeast was approximately $1.9\%$ of the total soluble protein. Immunoblotting analysis showed the yeast-derived LTB protein was antigenically indistinguishable from bacterial LTB protein. Since the whole-recombinant yeast has been introduced as a new vaccine formulation the expression of LTB in S. cerevisiae can offer an inexpensive yet effective strategy to protect against ETEC, especially in developing countries where it is needed most.
