Prokaryotic Expression and Polyclonal Antibody for Ferric Uptake Regulator Prepared from Vibrio vulnificus FJ03-X2
-
摘要: 应用PCR方法克隆了创伤弧菌Vibrio vulnificus FJ03-X2株的铁调基因fur (Ferric uptake regulator),该基因片段大小为450 bp,编码149个氨基酸;以pET32a为表达载体,构建了原核表达质粒pET32a-FUR,表达质粒测序结果表明目的基因与GenBank中报道的创伤弧菌fur基因的同源性达98%以上;诱导表达获得可溶性的重组表达蛋白rFUR。镍离子金属螯合亲和层析介质(Ni-NTA)纯化rFUR,SDS-PAGE电泳分析其分子量约33 kD。以纯化后的融合蛋白rFUR为抗原,4次免疫SD大鼠,制备抗rFUR蛋白大鼠多克隆抗体。用ELISA方法检测鼠多克隆抗体的效价达到1:256 000,表明融合蛋白rFUR具有良好的免疫原性。Abstract: Ferric uptake regulator (fur) gene from Vibrio vulnificus FJ03-X2 was cloned, and inserted into the prokaryotic expression vector, pET32a. Coding sequence of the gene contained 450 bps, encoding 149 amino acids. Its sequencing showed a greater than 98% homology with that of the fur gene from GenBank. Subsequently, the plasmid, pET32a-FUR, was transformed into E. coli BL21 to express the recombinant protein, rFUR. The soluble rFUR was then subject to the Ni-NTA His Binding affinity purification. The purified rFUR was injected into SD rats to produce polyclonal antibody. The obtained highly specific antibodies of FUR was confirmed by ELISA assay.
