摘要
[Objective] This study aimed to construct the recombinant expression plasmids containing H and F protein genes of Canine distemper virus isolated from a mink and to express these two genes in prekaryotic cells as well as to study the reactogenieity of the expressed products. [ Method ] RT-PCR amplification was used to obtain H and F protein genes; TA cloning and subclonlng techniques were used to construct the cloning plasmids（pMD-18T-H and pMD-18T-F） and recombinant expression plasmids（pET28a-H and pET28a-F） ; SDS-PAGE and Western-blotting were adopted to verify whether the target proteins were successfully expressed. [ Result] The recombinant expression plasmids pET28a-H and pET28a-F containing H and F protein genes of Canine distemper virus isolated from a mink were successfully constructed, and both the expressed H and F proteins with respectively relative molecular mass of 31 400 and 38 200 produced positive reac- tion with the CDV standard positive serum. [ Conclusion] The H and F proteins expressed in prokaryotic cells were the same with the natural ones in terms of reac- togenicity, which can be utilized for diagnosis of a CDV＇s infection or for an epidemiological investigation. Meanwhile, they also provide a basis for developing ge- netically engineered subunit vaccines.
