Descripción general

La toxina de la difteria puede utilizarse como el elemento toxina en la construcción de inmunotoxinas para citotoxicidad celular específica. Se ha utilizado el dominio de translocación de las toxinas bacterianas con un mecanismo de escape natural del endosoma en el desarrollo de vectores no víricos eficaces para aplicación en genoterapia.

Aplicación

La toxina diftérica de Corynebacterium diphtheriae se ha utilizado:


  • para la merma de la microglía con objeto de estudiar el trastorno por estrés postraumático en ratones[1]
  • inyectada intraperitonealmente en ratones transgénicos para seleccionar los híbridos después de la fusión de células madre y progenitoras hematopoyéticas trasplantadas (HSPC) durante la ablación[2]
  • para estudiar su efecto sobre los progenitores comprometidos con el linaje de eosinófilos en una cepa de ratones con deficiencia de eosinófilos[3]

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas

La toxina diftérica es una toxina bacteriana producida a partir de Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Contiene tres dominios que tienen acciones intracelulares. Los dominios intervienen en la intoxicación de la célula, la unión a la superficie celular y la internalización en endosomas, translocándose al citosol a través de la membrana del endosoma e inhibiendo la síntesis de proteínas celulares. La toxina diftérica es útil en la construcción de herramientas y tratamientos biotecnológicos.[4] Inhibe la síntesis de proteínas al catalizar la adenosina difosfato (ADP)-ribosilación de la proteína diana en eucariotas.[5]

Forma física

Polvo liofilizado que contiene Tris y EDTA.

Reconstitución

Cada vial, una vez reconstituido a 0,5 ml con agua destilada estéril, contiene ~1 mg de toxina de la difteria en Tris 0,01 M y Na2EDTA 0,001 M, pH 7,5.

Many peptides, when released as chemical messengers within the brain, have powerful influences on complex behaviours. Most strikingly, vasopressin and oxytocin, once thought of as circulating hormones whose actions were confined to peripheral organs, are now known to be released

Questions

1–9 of 9 Questions  
  1. How long can the product be stored for at 4C in its original packaging? Before reconstitution? Furthermore, what should it be reconstituted with for best efficiency and long-term effectiveness?

    1 answer
    1. This product is intended for laboratory or research use only, and no formal solution stability studies have been conducted. Before reconstitution, storage at 4°C in its original packaging is recommended, but specific duration guidelines are not provided. For reconstitution, use sterile distilled water to achieve a concentration of 1 mg of diphtheria toxin in 10 mM sodium phosphate with 5% lactose, pH 7.4. After reconstitution, unused toxin can be quick frozen in aliquots on dry ice and stored at -70°C. Thawing should be done quickly at room temperature. Repeated freezing and thawing or maintaining the preparation at 4°C for extended periods are not recommended, as these may lead to increased nicking. For assays using very low concentrations of the toxin, a carrier protein such as human serum albumin is suggested. The preparation migrates as a single major band under non-denaturing conditions, with a slower migrating band comprising less than 5% of the preparation, indicating an aggregate of diphtheria toxin. In the presence of a reducing agent, on SDS gels, the preparation shows a major band of approximately 63,000 daltons corresponding to the intact toxin, and two faster bands of approximately 39,000 and 24,000 daltons corresponding to the B and A fragments, respectively. The degree of nicking is estimated to be less than 5%. It is not recommended to store the solution frozen, and use within 1 month of resuspension is advised. The vial contains salts for TRIS and EDTA at pH 7.5.

  2. How long is the lyophilized DT stable for if kept in its original packaging at 4C?

    1 answer
    1. Products that are robust in nature and extremely stable, in the original unopened container, are not assigned an expiration date or retest schedule. These products will have no dating reported on either the label or the Certificate of Analysis. This product falls under that category. The specification sheet is available at this link: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/specification-sheets/872/957/D0564-BULK________SIGMA____.pdf

      Products that are not assigned an expiration or retest date are covered by a warranty period of 1 year from the date of product shipment.

  3. What is recommend for reconstituting the product for injection in mice via ip injection? The product instructions advise using sterile distilled water, but the product also contains Tris and EDTA. Most references and research articles recommend using PBS for reconstitution. I am concerned that water might be too hypotonic for the mice and may cause their cells to rupture, but I'm not sure whether the Tris and EDTA can prevent that.

    1 answer
    1. No test has been conducted on this product for intraperitoneal injection. However, for intraperitoneal injection in mice, normal saline solution appears to be effective as a delivery solvent

  7. What is the molecular weight of Product D0564, Diphtheria Toxin from Corynebacterium diphtheriae?

    1 answer
    1. In the presence of a reducing agent, on SDS gels, this preparation migrates as a major band of approx. mw 63,000 Daltons (corresponding to thte intact toxin) and two faster more lightly stained bands of approx. MW 39,000 and 24,000 Daltons (corresponding to the B and A fragments, respectively). Based on this method, the extent of the degree of nicking in this preparation is estimated to be less than 5%.
