摘 要:
Ⅱ型猪圆环病毒(PCV2)是引起断奶仔猪多系统衰竭综合症(PMWS)的重要病原.本研究用PCR以构建的PCV2 ORF2重组质粒pBS-T-ORP2为模板,扩增截短的ORP2(tORF2)基因亚克隆至表达载体pGEX-4T-3,构建重组表达质粒pGEX-tORP2并转化大肠杆菌BL21(DE3).经SDS-PAGE及Western blot鉴定,成功表达了谷胱甘肽S转移酶(GST)融合的tORP2,重组蛋白分子量约为45ku,表达量约为菌体总蛋白的20%,重组蛋白具有良好的免疫学活性.用tORP2重组蛋白对20份临床猪繁殖与呼吸障碍综合征(PRRS)阳性猪血清进行Western blot检测,有4份(20%)血清显示PCV2抗体阳性,说明PCV2与PRRSV存在共同感染现象.本研究初步证明表达的tORV2重组融合蛋白可以应用于临床检测.[著者文摘]

Abstract:
Porcine circovirus type Ⅱ (PCV2) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in swine. The ORF2 gene encoding the capsid protein of PCV2 was amplified by PCR and cloned into plasmid pBS-T to construct recombinant plasmid pBS-T-ORF2, which was used as template to amplify the truncated ORF2 (tORF2). The tORF2 gene was consequently cloned into the expression vector of pGEX-4T-3 for prokaryotic expression in E. coli. Expression level of the recombinant GST-tagged tORF2 protein reached approximately 20% of the total bacterial proteins and its molecular weight was approximately 45 ku identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The recombinant protein was used as antigen to establish a Western blot diagnostic assay. Twenty PRRS positive swine serum samples were detected by this Western blot assay. The positive rate of these sera was 20% (4/20), indicating that coinfection of PRRSV and PCV2 exist in swine. Taken together, the recombinant tORF2 protein reporteded in the present study may play a critical role in the detection of PCV2 antibodies immunologically.[著者文摘]
