Purification of rCTB–YVAD from the culture supernatant of L. casei transformed with pSCTB–YVAD. rCTB–YVAD was purified using its His-tag with a nickel-bound affinity resin. Purification was confirmed by SDS-PAGE followed by CBB staining (A) and immunoblotting with an antibody directed against CT (B). Data are representative of three separate experiments. The GM1-ganglioside-binding activities of purified rCTB–YVAD and rCTB were analyzed by GM1-ELISA. Data represent the means ± SEM of three separate experiments performed in triplicate (C). **P < 0.01 compared with PBS.
