Development of novel iron-regulated Pasteurella multocida B: 2 bacterin and refinement of vaccine quality in terms of minimum variation in particle size and distribution vis-a-vis critical level of iron in media. Microb Pathog 2020; 147:104375.

Abstract
To enhance the qualitative bacterial biomass per unit of media and to overcome the limitations of the existing haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) vaccines, a comprehensive study was undertaken encompassing the role of iron on the bacterial biomass of Pasteurella multocida B: 2 to vaccine development. Trypsin digested hydrochloric acid-treated sheep blood (THSB) as a novel iron rich supplement had been devised for the first time for augmenting the qualitative bacterial biomass per unit of media which was evident with growth kinetic study. The higher recovery of iron from THSB became evident via atomic absorbance spectrophotometry. The critical level of iron in the media as well as mode of iron supplementation showed a major impact on the outer membrane protein profile of P. multocida B:2 and variation in droplet size and particle-size distribution of formulated vaccine. Immune response study against iron-regulated bacterin adjuvanted with aluminum hydroxide gel in mouse model showed that 3% THSB supplementation of casein sucrose yeast (CSY) not only augmented the growth of P. multocida B:2 significantly but conferred highest pre-challenged ELISA IgG titer and protection against pasteurellosis. Thus, THSB supplementation of CSY can resolve existing up-scaling and immunogenic potential problems of HS vaccine production.

Abstract
A comparison is made of the four main components of an homozygous variant (A or D2D2) of bovine serum transferrin. These are designated I-IV in order of increasing mobility in electrophoresis at pH 7.5. Components I, II, III and IV have 2,2,3 and 3 residues of sialic acid per transferrin molecule and appear to correspond to components 2a, 2b, 3a and 3b respectively of Stratil & Spooner (1971). The difference between components I and II and between III and IV does not reside in sialic acid differences. On the basis of peptide maps of reduced carboxamidomethylated components, urea-starch gel electrophoresis and quantitative sequence studies, it is concluded that components II and IV have a scission in the peptide chain. By homology with the sequency of MacGillivray et al. (1977) for human serum transferrin it is suggested that the scission occurs between residues 55 and 54 from the C-terminus and this portion of the chain has a 'molecular' weight of ca. 6000. The implications are briefly discussed.

Abstract
1. Some physicochemical properties of transferrin from three marsupials, viz a possum (Trachosurus vulpecula), a kangaroo (Macropus fuliginosus) and the quokka (Setonix brachyurus) were studied and compared with those of transferrins from mammalian and non-mammalian vertebrate species. 2. The molecular weight of the marsupial transferrins fell within the range of 76,000-79,000 daltons. 3. The marsupial transferrins were similar to the transferrins of eutherian mammals with respect to optical spectral properties, iron binding capacity and the pH-dependence of iron binding, and iron release mediated by 2,3-DPG. 4. The amino acid compositions of the marsupial transferrins were compared with each other and with the transferrins from the other vertebrate species. The compositions of the marsupial transferrin were closely related to each other, and also showed similarities with transferrins from eutherian mammals and chicken ovotransferrin.

Abstract
In the present paper, gel-filtration studies of diferric-ovotransferrin (Fe2OTf), the individual half-molecules of ovotransferrin (OTf) and equimolar mixtures of half-molecules have been interpreted according to the Gilbert theory as developed by Ackers & Thompson [(1965) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 53, 342-349]. The data indicate that the half-molecules associate reversibly in solution and allow determination of a dissociation constant, Kd' = 8.0 (+/- 2.7) microM. Equilibrium binding studies have been performed using NH4Cl to block removal of iron from equimolar differentially iodine-labelled half-molecules (125I and 131I), in order to evaluate the binding of each to chick-embryo red blood cells under identical conditions. The amount of associated half-molecules over a range of concentrations has been calculated using the constant derived from the gel-filtration experiments described above. A computerized non-linear least-squares regression analysis of the data leads to determination of Kd* (the apparent dissociation constant for the interaction between OTf or half-molecules and the transferrin (Tf) receptors of chick-embryo red blood cells) and Bmax (binding at infinite free-ligand concentration) for the half-molecules similar to those found for Fe2OTf. Recent reports confirm that the two iron-binding domains of both OTf and human lactotransferrin associate non-covalently in solution. Our work shows that the isolated half-molecules of OTf are able to reassociate in solution and that this reassociation has functional significance by allowing the complex to be recognized by the Tf receptor.

Abstract
Iron-saturated bovine transferrins A, D1, D2 and E were cleaved by trypsin yielding monoferric fragments. The N-terminal fragments (F) of transferrins A and D2 had identical mobility in cellulose acetate electrophoresis, that of transferrin D1 a slower mobility, and that of E a still slower mobility. The C-terminal fragments (S) gave multiple bands which were essentially identical in the case of transferrins A, D1, and E, but of slower mobility in the case of transferrin D2. All four variants had identical N-terminal amino acid sequences. The electrophoretic mobility of the C-terminal fragments was reduced by neuraminidase treatment, but the N-terminal fragments were unaffected. The four transferrin variants therefore appear to be made up from three electrophoretically distinguishable N-terminal halves and two C-terminal halves. The feature responsible for the electrophoretic double banding of homozygous bovine asialotransferrins is consistently associated with the C-terminal half of the molecule.

Abstract
1. The mechanism of interaction of transferrin with reticulocytes has been investigated using monoferric fragments derived by proteolysis from bovine Fe2-transferrin. 2. Rabbit reticulocytes readily took up iron from bovine transferrin, but only slight uptake occurred from the C-terminal fragment (S), and almost none from the N-terminal fragment (F). 3. The degree of binding of transferrin and fragments to the cells was in the order transferrin greater than fragment F greater than fragment S. 4. Binding of transferrin and fragment S, but not of fragment F, was reduced when incubation was performed at 4 degrees C instead of 37 degrees C, and all iron uptake was abolisehd. 5. Preincubation of reticulocytes with fragment S, but not with fragment F, somewhat reduced subsequent iron uptake from transferrin. 6. The presence of bovine serum albumin (40 mg/ml) in the incubation buffer inhibited iron uptake, but iron uptake nevertheless occurred from transferrin in bovine serum. 7. No differences were detected in the rate of 59Fe uptake from transferrin labelled asymmetrically by sequential additions of 59Fe and 56Fe to apotransferrin. 8. It is concluded that both halves of the transferrin molecule are involved, perhaps in different ways, in the interaction of transferrin with reticulocytes, and that rabbit reticulocytes do not take up iron preferentially from one of the binding sites of bovine transferrin.

Abstract
The effect of trypsin digestion on iron-saturated and iron-free (apo) human, rabbit, bovine, pig and horse tranferrins has been studied. Iron-binding fragments were produced only from iron-saturated pig and bovine transferrins although some cleavage of the polypeptide chain occurred in all cases. The apo-transferrins were generally degraded to a greater extent than the corresponding iron-saturated proteins. The ability of the different transferrins to donate iron to rabbit reticulocytes varied in the order rabbit approximately pig greater than human approximately horse greater than bovine. Trypsin digestion considerably reduced the ability of pig and bovine transferrins to donate iron to rabbit reticulocytes, slightly reduced the iron-donating ability of rabbit transferrin, and had almost no effect on that of human or horse transferrins.
