摘要
将PRRSVCH1a株N基因用EcoRI和PstI双酶切从重组质粒pUC18ORF7切下后,插入到原核表达载体pBV220的PR、PL启动子下游,得到重组表达质粒pBV220ORF7。转化了pBV220ORF7的大肠杆菌JM83经诱导培养后,用SDSPAGE和Westernblot检测表达产物。结果表明PRRSVCH1a株的N基因在原核载体上得到高效表达,表达产物占菌体总蛋白的153%。表达蛋白可望成为有价值的PRRS诊断抗原。
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome(PRRS) is a newly recognized pig disease of economic importance characterized by reproductive failure in sows and increased pre weaning mortality in piglets.Its caused by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV),a small spherical enveloped RNA virus.PRRSV strain CH 1a was recently isolated in a pig farm in China during an outbreak of PRRS.It has been shown to be North American genotype,and its N gene has been cloned,sequenced,and analyzed elsewhere.The N gene was inserted into downstream of the P L and P S promoters of pBV220 (an expressing plasmid introduced from a Chinese institute).The recombinant plasmid pBV220 ORF7 was thus constructed.Strain JM83 of E.coli.containing pBV220 ORF7 was induced at 42℃ for 4 7hr after incubation with vigorous shaking at 37℃ for 3hr or so.A unique protein band of approximate 15 kDa was characterized in the lysate of the transformed bacteria by SDS PAGE electrophoresis.The expression level was up to 15 3% of the total bacterial proteins.Western blot analysis showed the expressed protein was specific to antisera against PRRSV strain Ch 1a.The recombinant N protein is potentially valuable antigen for serological tests and immunoprophlaxis of PRRS.
