The probiotic bacterium Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) constitutes a prospective vector for delivering heterologous therapeutic molecules to treat several human disorders. To add versatility to this carrier system, bacteria should be equipped with expression modules that can be regulated

We developed a single-plasmid-based regulatable protein expression system for Borrelia burgdorferi. Expression of a target gene is driven by P(ost), a hybrid B. burgdorferi ospA-tetO promoter, from a recombinant B. burgdorferi plasmid constitutively expressing TetR. The system was tested using

Trastuzumab (Herceptin) has improved therapy of breast cancer. Only patients overexpressing ERBB2 are treated with trastuzumab, whereas its use in tumours without ERBB2 expression is useless. This led to the concept that the subgroup of trastuzumab-sensitive tumours is 'ERBB2-dependent', meaning

The collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases (C-P4Hs) that reside within the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are the key enzymes in the biosynthesis of collagens. The vertebrate enzymes are alpha(2)beta(2) tetramers consisting of two catalytic alpha subunits and two beta subunits
