摘要: 以弓形虫感染兔血清免疫球蛋白(Ig)作为靶分子,免疫筛选噬菌体随机7肽库和12肽库。经3轮筛选,随机挑取70个噬菌体克隆用ELISA检测其特异性,共获得43个阳性克隆。对23个ELISA反应较强的克隆进行测序,根据序列分析选择有代表性的克隆A7作为模拟表位抗原进行ELISA检测。对47份弓形虫感染兔血清进行ELISA检测,结果32份为阳性,敏感性为68.1%;155份健康人血清中弓形虫抗体呈阳性者10份,特异性为93.5%。从噬菌体随机肽库中能筛选到弓形虫抗原模拟表位有诊断弓形虫病的潜在价值。

Abstract:

Specific antibodies purified from sera of rabbit infected with Toxoplasma gondii were used to immunoscreen the 12-mer and 7-mer phage random peptide libraries. By 3 rounds of screening, 70 clones were picked out randomly to test the specificity and 43 were found positive by ELISA. 23 of the 43 positive clones showing strong reaction in ELISA were picked out for sequencing. Clone A7 was selected as mimic antigen in ELISA test after analysis of the 23 short peptide sequences. 23 out of 47 sera from rabbits infected with Toxoplasma gondii were ELISA positive by A7 mimic antigen with a positive rate of 68.1%, and 10 of 155 sera from healthy persons showed false positive with a specificity of 93.5%. The primary result suggests that mimic antigen may have a potential use in diagnose of toxoplasmosis.
