伪狂犬病病毒湖北株糖蛋白gD基因的克隆及序列测定

According to the sequence of gD gene of PRV Rice strain, the primers of 22bp were designed.Using PRV genomic DNA of Hubei and Shuangcheng virus strains which infected BHK 21 cell separately as template, the gD gene of PRV was amplified sucessfully by PCR and cloned into pGEM T vector. Restriction enzyme analysis showed that the cloned gD gene at SmaⅠ,SalⅠ,KpnⅠ,PvuⅡ sites was the same as that of PRV Rice strain. The gD gene consisted of 1,263 nucleotides including an open reading frame spanning 1,197 nucleotieds which could encode a protein of 398 amino acids. The ORF didn′t include an amino acid sequence directing N linked glycosylation (NXT or NXS). Comparison of our complete Hubei strain gD gene sequence with the Rice strain gD gene sequence showed that the nucleotide and deduced amino acid homology were about 97% and there was an 12 basepair deletion in 835 846 nucleotide sites that coded Arg Pro Arg Pro. A region of the amino acid sequence and the positions of the cysteine residues of PRV HB gD were homologous to HSV I glycoprotein D. This work laid foundation for PRV gene immunization and studying PRV sub unit vaccine.     

Protection against lethal subcutaneous challenge of virulent Y. pestis strain 141 using an F1-V subunit vaccine

In this study, we designed and engineered a two-component recombinant fusion protein antigen as a vaccine candidate against the possible biological threat of Yersinia pestis. The recombinant F1-V pro-tein was formulated with Alhydrogel. A four-time injection with a dosage of 10, 20 and 50 μg/mouse in about two months was adopted for vaccination. Serum antibodies and subclass of T helper cells were measured and analyzed. After the final vaccination, the mice were challenged by 141 strain with 25― 600 LD50. In conclusion, the recombinant vaccine was capable of inducing protective immunity against subcutaneous challenge. The level of serum IgG was supposed to be a main factor that affected the final protection of challenge. 20 μg recombinant protein could induce an endpoint titre of serum IgG as high as 51200, which was enough to afford 100% protection against 400 LD50 virulent 141 challenge. The antibody isotype analysis showed that the vaccine induced predominantly an IgG1 rather than IgG2a response. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that Alhydrogel significantly helped induce a stronger humoral immunity instead of CTL cellular response. These findings suggested that the plague F1-V subunit vaccine is promising for the next plague vaccine.     

Construction of a DNA library from chromosome 4 of rice （Oryza sativa） by microdissection

A simple method to create a chromosome-specific DNA librqary of rice,including microdissection,amplification,charterization and cloning,is described.Rice chromosome 4 from a metaphase cell has been isolated and amplified by the Linker Adapter PCR (LA-PCR).The PCR products were labeled as probes with DIG-11-dUTP using the random priming method.Southern blot analysis with rice genomic DNA and specific RFLP markers demonstrated that the PCR products were derived from rice chromosome 4.A large library comprising over 100,000 recombinant plasmid microclones from rice chromosome 4 was constructed.Colony hybridization showed that 58% of the clones contained single or low-copy sequences and 42% contained repetitive sequences.The size of inserts generated by PCR ranged from 140bp to 500bp.This method will facilitate cloning of the specific chromosome DNA markers and important genes of rice.

Changes of 5＇ Terminal Nucleotides of PCR Primers Causing Variable T-A Cloning Efficiency

T-A cloning takes advantage of the unpaired adenosyl residue added to the 3＇ terminus of amplified DNAs by Taq and other thermostable DNA polymerase and uses a Ilnearlzed plasmld vector with a protruding 3＇ thymldylate residue at each of Its 3＇ termini to clone polymerase chain reaction （PCR）-derived DNA fragments. It Is a simple, reliable, and efficient Ilgatlon-dependent cloning method for PCR products, but the drawback of variable cloning efficiency occurs during application. In the present work, the relationship between variable T-A cloning efficiency and the different 5＇ end nucleotlde base of primers used In PCR amplification was studied. The results showed that different cloning efficiency was obtained with different primer pairs containing A, T, C and G at the 5＇ terminus respectively. The data shows that when the 5＇ end base of primer pair was adenosyl, more white colonies could be obtained In cloning the corresponding PCR product In comparison with other bases. And the least white colonies were formed when using the primer pair with 5＇ cytldylate end. The gluanylate end primers resulted In almost the same cloning efficiency In the white colonies amount as the thymldylate end primer did, and this efficiency was much lower than that of adenosyl end primers. This presumably is a consequence of variability In 3＇dA addition to PCR products mediated by Taq polymerase. Our results offer instructions for primer design for researchers who choose T-A cloning to clone PCR products.     

应用细菌内同源重组机制快速克隆腺病毒基因组的研究

A novel procedure was used for cloning large adenovirus genome fragment by the homologous recombination in E.coli strain BJ5183. The 11.2Kb downstream fragment of the CAV-2 strain YCA18 genome was cloned by homologous recombination, the 1029bp left end and the 970bp fight end of this fragment were separately amplified by PCR. They were then cloned into plasmid pPoly2 with direction from left fragment to fight fragment, obtaining a “rescue” plasmid pT615. The pT615 was liberalized by Hind Ⅲ and PstⅠ digestion and was cotransformed with the purified CAV-2 genome which was cut by BstBI into competent E.coli strain BJ5183. Recombinant plasmids harboring the 11.2Kb downstream fragment of CAV-2 genome were obtained after bacterial intermolecular homologous recombination. The recombinant efficiency of all E.coli strains tested was 78.3%. One of the recombinant plasmids, pT618, was further identified by enzyme digestion analysis and PCR amplification. The results showed the plasmids contained the 11.2kb fragment downstream the genome of CAV-2.     

基因芯片技术检测肾综合征出血热病毒核酸的研究

To establish a rapid, sensitive and specific diagnostic assay for Hantavirus with microarray techniques, specific primers and probes were designed according to the conservative and specific DNA sequence of 76-118 strain and R22 strain. The probes were spotted on glass slides to form microarrays.The Cy3-1abled single stranded DNA fragments prepared by dissymmetical PCR were hybridized with the probes on the glass slides. The microarrays were scanned and analyzed with a scanner. The results showed that the DNA microarray could detect the different typed DNA of HTN and SEO with adequate specificity and sensitivity. The developed DNA microarray and techniques might be a very useful method for diagnosis and prevention, and could be widely applied in specific pathogens detection ofinfectious diseases such as hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome.     

Cloning and Sequence Analysis of Genome from the Inner Mongolia Strain of the Endogenous Betaretroviruses （enJSRV）

In order to amplify the complete genome of enJSRV from the strain of Inner Mongolia （enJSRV-NM）, we used enJSRV-specific and JSRV-specific DNA probes in dot blot hybridization. Seven pairs of primers were designed based on Genbank sequences. Seven fragments were obtained by PCR and were cloned into the PMD19-T vectors. The recombinant plasmids were sequenced and analyzed. The results showed that the genome was 7 942 bp in length and contained four overlapping open reading frames corresponding to the gag, pro, pol and env genes as well as an additional open reading frame （orf-x） that overlaps the 3＇ end of the pol gene. The nucleotide acid sequences of the enJSRV-NM loci were compared with the sequences of South Africa enJS56A1 strain （Accession No.AF153615） and USA JSRV21 strain （Accession No. AF105220）. The nucleotide acid identities were 99.2% and 92.3% respectively. Two zinc fingers were found in the NC region in the predicted amino acid sequence. However, the YXXM motif, which is a reliable molecular marker for the infectious exogenous virus, was not found in the TM region. It was found that the enJSRV-NM region was 90%-98% identical at the amino acid level to its exogenous infectious counterparts in most of the retroviral genome. This is the first nucleotide sequence of enJSRV reported in P.R China. The resource work has provided a wide range of information useful not only for expression genomics and annotation of genomic DNA sequence, but also for further research on the clinical diagnosis of OPA.

Molecular differentiation of three loach species (Pisces, Cobitidae) based on the nuclear 5S rDNA marker

The diversity of the 5S rDNA fragment among three loach species: Cobitis taenia, C. elongatoides and Sabanejewia aurata was investigated using universal PCR primers for this gene. Three amplification products were obtained: 220 bp length for C. taenia and C. elongatoides, and 330 bp for S. aurata. Two amplicons with the same length (in Cobitis) were digested with TaqI restriction endonuclease. This enzyme found one restriction site T/CGA in the C. elongatoides fragment, while in the case of C. taenia no cleavage effect was observed. On this basis we constructed an easy and cheap method for loach species discrimination. It seems adequate for effective support of conservation initiatives for endangered loaches.
