  • Publication number: 20240084312
    Abstract: The invention relates to a recombinant bacterium and uses thereof. In particular, it relates to the use of recombinant bacteria to translocate cargo proteins into the cytosol of target cells. Said recombinant bacteria comprises a T3 secretion system under the control of a genetic regulatory circuit and a targeting module which allow the recombinant bacteria to target specific cells, adhere to these and inject their cargo into the cytosol of the target cells.

  • Publication number: 20080280346
    Abstract: The system comprises a DNA construct comprising: a) a first nucleic acid sequence containing the nucleotide sequence coding for a product of interest; b) a second nucleic acid sequence containing the nucleotide sequence coding for a dimerization domain; and c) a third nucleic acid sequence containing the nucleotide sequence coding for Escherichia coli ?-hemolysin (HlyA) or for a fragment of said protein comprising the recognition signal of the E. coli hemolysin (Hly) transport system secretion mechanism. It is applicable in producing recombinant dimeric proteins.
