Bioinformatics features and immunogenic epitopes of Echinococcus granulosus Myophilin as a promising target for vaccination against cystic echinococcosis
2021, Infection, Genetics and EvolutionCitation Excerpt :The E. granulosus Myophilin (EgMyophilin) is expressed in subtegumental parenchyma of PSCs and adult worm suckers. The protein mediates host tissue invasion and the worm movement by regulating smooth muscle contractions (Martin et al., 1995b; Pourseif et al. 2018). The present study was aimed to investigate the detailed features of the EgMyophilin by in silico prediction methods with emphasis on the most potent immunogenic epitopes as a foundation for further vaccination strategies.
Crenomytilus grayanus 40 kDa calponin-like protein: cDNA cloning, sequence analysis, tissue expression, and post-translational modifications
2017, Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology - Part D: Genomics and ProteomicsCitation Excerpt :They have been identified in Eisenia (Royuela et al., 1997), Mytilus (Funabara et al., 2001), Halacarellus (Royuela et al., 2000), Echinococcus (Martin et al., 1995, 1997), Schistosoma (Jones et al., 2001) and Onchocerca (Irvine et al., 1994), but not in Drosophila or crustacean muscle (Royuela et al., 1997, 2000). DNA and protein sequences were determined for nematode calponin-like proteins (Castagnone-Sereno et al., 2001), Echinococcus (Martin et al., 1995) and Schistosoma (Yang et al., 1999). It was also reported that Echinococcus has a single calponin gene, but multiple isoforms were expressed because of post-translational modifications, including the phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC) (Martin et al., 1997).
Expression, immunolocalization and serodiagnostic value of a myophilin-like protein from Schistosoma japonicum
2008, Experimental ParasitologyCitation Excerpt :In contrast, the antibody level of the un-treated group increased throughout the experiment until 18 weeks after infection, and the level was clearly different from that of the pre-infected animals (P < 0.05) (Fig. 6A). Myophilin was first identified as a muscle-specific protein of E. granulosus, where it appeared to be involved in the regulation of muscle contraction (Martin et al., 1995, 1996). A myophilin-like protein was subsequently identified from E. granulosus with high similarity (74% amino acid sequence identity) myophilin.
