Production and Characterization of Monoclonal Antibodies against a Recombinant Nfa1 Protein Cloned from Pathogenic Naegleria fowleri
… with eight McAbs showed on pseudopodia and food-cups by a fluorescent microscope. CONCLUSION: Eight hybridoma cell lines (A1F, A3C, A6D, A10F, C3A, C6F, C7F, B6B) secreting high titer of McAbs against the recombinant His-tag fusion Nfa1 protein were established. Also, the localization of the …

Characterization of an nf-actin gene in the pathogenic Naegleria fowleri
… of piecemeal ingestion of target cells by food-cups (amoebastomes). Phagocytosis is an actin-dependent process that includes polymerization of monomeric G-actin into filamentous F-actin. Despite the numerous studies concerning with phagocytosis, the detailed role of actin in the N. fowleri …

The effect of nfa1 accination against Naeglearia fowleri infection
… is located on pseudopodia, especially amoebic food-cups and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of N. fowleri. In this study, the retroviral vector (pQCXIN) and the lentiviral vector (pCDH) cloned with the egfp-nfa1 gene was constructed and characterized for nfa1 DNA vaccination in …

Knockdown of nfa1 Gene Cloned from Naegleria fowleri by Antisense RNA
… should be concerned with the formation of food-cups that is a phagocytic structure. In addition, an anti-Nfa1 antobody reduced the in vitro cytotoxicity of N. fowleri against target cells. To elucidate the function of proteins cloned from N. fowleri, the gene-knockdown analysis by a …
