摘    要:The three parts(Stx17B, Stx27B and StxB) of Shiga toxin B subunit have been fused into a cell surface exposed loop of the LamB protein at a BamH I site between residues 153 and 154. Western blotting revealed that the three parts of Shiga toxin B subunit could be expressed as the Lamb fusion proteins in E. coli. Indirect immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy analyses showed fusion proteins LamB/Stx17B and LamB/Stx27B could be expressed at cell surface in E. coli, but fusion protein LamB/StxB could not be expressed at cell surface; it was aggregated in cytoplasm and was toxic to host. This expression system provided a new way to construct an oral live vaccine against Shigella dysenteriae 1.
