**Background of IpaC Recombinant Protein**
IpaC (Invasion plasmid antigen C) is a critical virulence factor produced by *Shigella* spp. and enteroinvasive *Escherichia coli* (EIEC), pathogens responsible for bacillary dysentery and severe gastrointestinal infections. It is a component of the type III secretion system (T3SS), a needle-like apparatus that enables bacterial invasion of host epithelial cells by directly injecting effector proteins into the host cytoplasm. IpaC plays a dual role: it facilitates bacterial entry by inducing membrane ruffling and phagocytosis, while also contributing to the inflammatory response by activating host signaling pathways, such as NF-κB.
Structurally, IpaC contains hydrophobic and coiled-coil domains that mediate its oligomerization and interaction with host cell membranes. Its N-terminal region is essential for secretion through the T3SS, while the C-terminal domain is involved in pore formation and cytoskeletal rearrangement. Recombinant IpaC is typically produced using heterologous expression systems, such as *E. coli*, followed by purification via affinity chromatography. This engineered protein retains functional properties, making it valuable for studying bacterial pathogenesis, host-pathogen interactions, and immune responses.
Research applications of IpaC recombinant protein include elucidating mechanisms of bacterial invasion, screening for inhibitors of T3SS function, and developing vaccines or diagnostic tools. Its immunogenic properties have also prompted investigations into its potential as a subunit vaccine candidate. However, challenges remain in optimizing its stability and minimizing endotoxin contamination during production. Overall, IpaC serves as a pivotal model for understanding Gram-negative bacterial virulence and host cell subversion strategies.
