摘要:

目的 克隆、表达广州管圆线虫半胱氨酸蛋白酶1(AcCBL1)和AcCBL2基因,分析重组半胱氨酸蛋白酶rAcCBL1和rAcCBL2的免疫反应性。方法 基于广州管圆线虫Ⅳ期幼虫的cDNA文库筛选获得AcCBL1和AcCBL2基因,构建pET-28a-AcCBL1和pET-28a-AcCBL2重组质粒,转入大肠埃希菌BL21(DE3)中,经异丙基-β-D-硫代半乳糖苷(IPTG)诱导表达、镍柱纯化后,利用十二烷基硫酸钠-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(SDS-PAGE)分析重组蛋白表达情况。蛋白质印迹(Western blotting)分析重组蛋白对6 × His标签单克隆抗体、感染广州管圆线虫的小鼠和患者血清的免疫反应性。结果 AcCBL1和AcCBL2基因PCR扩增产物分别约为1 000、1 100 bp。SDS-PAGE结果显示,rAcCBL1为可溶表达蛋白,相对分子质量(Mr)约为37 800;rAcCBL2主要以包涵体形式存在,约为Mr 40 800。Western blotting结果显示,rAcCBL1和rAcCBL2能与6 × His标签单克隆抗体、感染广州管圆线虫的小鼠和患者血清特异性结合。结论 成功克隆和表达AcCBL1和AcCBL2基因,二者表达产物均具有良好的免疫反应性。

Abstract:

Objective To clone and express the cysteine protease genes AcCBL1 and AcCBL2 of Angiostrongylus cantonensis, and analyze the immunoreactivity of the purified recombinant proteins. Methods Two cysteine protease genes AcCBL1 and AcCBL2 were identified from Angiostrongylus cantonensis fourth-stage larvae cDNA library, and cloned into pET-28a vector to generate recombinant plasmids pET-28a-AcCBL1 and pET-28a-AcCBL2, respectively. The constructed recombinant plasmids were transformed into(E. coli) BL21(DE3) respectively for expression under the induction of isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside(IPTG). The recombinant proteins rAcCBL1 and rAcCBL2 were purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography and identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE). The immunoreactivity of rAcCBL1 and rAcCBL2 were analyzed by Western blotting with 6 × His tag antibody, as well as anti-sera from mice infected with A. cantonensis and patients. Results PCR generated a specific band at 1 000 bp and 1 100 bp for AcCBL1 and AcCBL2, respectively, consistent with the theoretical values. The constructed vector pET-28a-AcCBL1 and pET-28a-AcCBL2 were confirmed by gene sequencing. SDS-PAGE revealed that rAcCBL1 was soluble with relative molecular mass of 37 800, and rAcCBL2 was expressed as inclusion body in E. coli with relative molecular mass of 40 800. Western blotting showed that the two purified recombinant proteins can be recognized by 6 × His tag antibody, as well as anti-sera from mice infected with A. cantonensis and patients. Conclusion AcCBL1 and AcCBL2 genes have been expressed in prokaryotic expression system. The two recombinant proteins both show adequate immunoreactivity.
