Structural and functional analysis of the 57 kDa protein produced by the fish pathogen, Renibacterium salmoninarum

Creator:

Wiens, Gregory D.

Abstract:

Little is known about the virulence factors of Renibacterium salmoninarum, the causative agent of salmonid bacterial kidney disease. The predominant protein produced by R. salmoninarum in broth culture or during infection is a 57/58 kDa protein (p57) which is associated with strain virulence. In this study monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to...

In vitro regulation and cultivation of salmonid lymphocytes

Creator:

DeKoning-Loo, Jenefer

Abstract:

The foundation of the research compilation presented here began with the derivation of an improved method for obtaining optimal in vitro mitogenic responses in salmonid lymphocyte cultures by utilizing autologous or homologous plasma as the primary serum supplement. It was observed that lymphocytes which were previously unresponsive to mitogenic challenge...
