基于λ-Red重组酶系统的Ⅳa2基因缺失及重组腺病毒的包装

本研究用λ-Red重组酶介导的PCR打靶方法缺失腺病毒基因组上Ⅳa2基因的大部分编码序列(1104 bp),并获得一种Ⅳa2基因缺失的重组腺病毒。首先构建PCR打靶的含有卡那霉素抗性表达盒的模板质粒pAK,再以pAK为模板扩增出两端含39 bp同源臂的线性DNA片段;将pFG140质粒及线性DNA片段依次转化到宿主菌BW25113/pIJ790中,通过λ-Red重组酶介导的同源重组获得了缺失Ⅳa2基因的腺病毒基因组质粒pFG140-ΔⅣa2(1104)。酶切及DNA测序结果显示,用λ-Red重组酶介导的PCR打靶方法在pFG140上精确地缺失了预计的Ⅳa2基因3'端的1104bp片段。用PCR方法扩增获得Ⅳa2基因全长ORF,插入表达载体pAAV2neo中,构建成Ⅳa2基因表达质粒pAAV2neo-Ⅳa2。将pFG140-ΔⅣa2(1104)与pAAV2neo-Ⅳa2共转染HEK293细胞,成功地获得了重组腺病毒Ad5ΔⅣa2(1104)。Western Blot的结果表明,Ad5ΔⅣa2(1104)病毒感染的HEK293细胞检测不到Ⅳa2蛋白的表达。本研究建立了一种对腺病毒基因组直接进行缺失操作的λ-Red...     

A novel and highly efficient production system for recombinant adeno-associated virus vector

Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) has proven to be a promising gene delivery vector for human gene therapy. However, its application has been limited by difficulty in obtaining enough quantities of high-titer vector stocks. In this paper, a novel and highly efficient production system for rAAV is described. A recombinant herpes simplex virus type 1 (rHSV-1) designated HSV1-rc/AUL2, which expressed adeno-associated virus type2 (AAV-2) Rep and Cap proteins, was constructed previously. The data confirmed that its functions were to support rAAV replication and packaging, and the generated rAAV was infectious. Meanwhile, an rAAV proviral cell line designated BHK/SG2, which carried the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene expression cassette, was established by transfecting BHK-21 cells with rAAV vector plasmid pSNAV-2-GFP. Infecting BHK/SG2 with HSV1-rc/AUL2 at an MOI of 0.1 resulted in the optimal yields of rAAV, reaching 250 transducing unit (TU) or 4.28×104 particles per cell. Therefore, compared     

A novel and highly efficient production system for recombinant adeno-associated virus vector

Recombinant adeno-associated virus(rAAV) has proven to be a promising gene delivery vector for human gene therapy. However, its application has been limited by difficulty in obtaining enough quantities of high-titer vector stocks. In this paper, a novel and highly efficient production system for rAAV is described. A recombinant herpes simplex virus type 1(rHSV-1) designated HSV1-rc/△UL2, which expressed adeno-associated virus type2(AAV-2) Rep and Cap proteins, was constructed previously. The data confirmed that its functions were to support rAAV replication and packaging, and the generated rAAV was infectious. Meanwhile, an rAAV proviral cell line designated BHK/SG2, which carried the green fluorescent protein(GFP) gene expression cassette, was established by transfecting BHK-21 cells with rAAV vector plasmid pSNAV-2-GFP. Infecting BHK/SG2 with HSV1-rc/△UL2 at an MOI of 0.1 resulted in the optimal yields of rAAV, reaching 250 transducing unit(TU) or 4.28×104 particles per cell. Therefore, compared with the conventional transfection method, the yield of rAAV using this "one proviral cell line, one helper virus" strategy was increased by two orders of magnitude. Large-scale production of rAAV can be easily achieved using this strategy and might meet the demands for clinical trials of rAAV-mediated gene therapy.

可溶性肿瘤坏死因子受体II-脂联素球部融合蛋白的真核表达及生物学活性检测

本研究设计和构建了一种人肿瘤坏死因子受体II胞外区与人脂联素球部的融合基因sTNFRII-gAD,且相应的融合蛋白在哺乳动物细胞BHK-21S的无血清培养体系中实现了表达,并对该融合蛋白进行了初步鉴定。首先,用RT-PCR方法从人的外周血淋巴细胞总RNA中扩增人肿瘤坏死因子II型受体胞外区基因片段,与脂联素球部基因片段融合,克隆至pAAV2neo表达载体中,构建成pAAV2neo-sTNFRII-gAD。随后,用pAAV2neo-sTNFRII-gAD转染BHK-21S细胞获得G418抗性细胞BHK-21S/pAAV2neo-sTNFRII-gAD;然后,将原来含有血清的培养液换成无血清的化学成分限定的培养液,细胞从贴壁培养方式转换成悬浮培养方式;最后,收集BHK-21S/pAAV2neo-sTNFRII-gAD无血清悬浮培养24h后的培养上清,进行sTNFRII-gAD融合蛋白的鉴定分析。酶切鉴定和测序结果显示,所构建的pAAV2neo-sTNFRII-gAD质粒结构正确,sTNFRII-gAD序列与预期一致;分别用抗人肿瘤坏死因子受体II和抗人脂联素球部的单克隆抗体检测pAAV2neo-sTNFRII-gAD瞬时转染的BHK-21S细胞,免疫荧光呈现阳性;免疫印迹分析在pAAV2neo-sTNFRII-gAD稳定转染的BHK-21S细胞上清中检测到sTNFRII-gAD融合蛋白的表达,并以单体、三聚体和三聚体以上的多聚体形式存在。活性测定结果表明,sTNFRII-gAD融合蛋白具有显著抑制TNFα杀伤L929细胞的活性。因此,本研究为下一步大量制备sTNFRII-gAD融合蛋白用于体内外功能研究提供了良好基础。

为从临床样品中检测和分析SARSCoV病毒打基础,并为分析SARSCoV病毒的复制和转录等机理提供一种有效方法。以SARS冠状病毒TOR2株序列作为标准设计和制备一种覆盖SARS冠状病毒全基因组的寡聚核苷酸芯片,探针长度为70nt,每相邻的探针序列重复25nt,共660条。用该芯片分析了细胞培养的SARSCoV病毒总RNA、7个SARSCoV病毒的基因克隆片段。对RNA样品用随机引物进行反转录PCR获得cDNA。对DNA用随机引物扩增和dUTPcy3标记。结果用这种芯片杂交检测SARSCoV病毒RNA可见阳性信号呈全基因组分布,并且有多处连续的阳性信号点;用正常人的白细胞RNA为对照,杂交未出现明显阳性信号。检测7个SARSCoV病毒基因克隆片段,在该片段相应的探针区段出现连续阳性信号点。这种方法可有效地检测和分析样品中SARS冠状病毒全基因组的信息。     

单纯疱疹病毒I型扩增子系列载体的构建

我们先前已报道了构建成一种能在ＨＳＶ ｔｓＫ株辅助下进行复制和包装,并表达β－半乳糖苷酶基因ｌａｃＺ的ＨＳＶ－１扩增子质粒ｐＨＳＬ,以及它的应用。该质料中依次含有ＨＳＶ－１复制起点ｏｒｉＳ序列及ＩＥ６８启动子、ｌａｃＺ基因、ＳＶ４０ｐｏｌｙＡ、ＨＳＶ－１包装信号‘ａ’序列和大肠杆菌质粒骨架。然而,该质粒中的报告基因ｌａｃＺ无法用简单的酶切方法卸载下来,继而装入目的基因。本研究在此基础上,新构建了一     

1型和2型外壳蛋白构建的AAV载体携带HIV-1 gag诱导免疫反应的比较研究

比较两种血清型的腺病毒伴随病毒(Adeno-associated virus,AAV)载体携带HIV-1gag基因肌肉注射诱导小鼠免疫反应的特点。分别制备携带EGFP和HIV-1gag基因的重组AAV2/1(AAV1)和AAV2载体。小鼠肌肉注射rAAV1-EGFP和rAAV2-EGFP,观察注射局部EGFP的表达。将rAAV1-gag和rAAV2-gag分别以0、3周初免/加强方式肌肉注射免疫BALB/c小鼠以及新西兰白兔。ELISA法检测抗HIV-1 Gag P24蛋白的特异性抗体,细胞内细胞因子染色法检测Gag特异性的CTL反应。结果表明,rAAV1-EGFP在小鼠肌肉的表达强度显著高于rAAV2-EGFP;用Western blot法和间接免疫荧光法检测rAAV1-gag和rAAV2-gag体外转染的293细胞,均可检测到HIV-1 Gag蛋白的表达;在小鼠体内rAAV1-gag和rAAV2-gag组均可检测到特异性P24抗体,抗体滴度rAAV1-gag组显著高于rAAV2-gag组;而无论rAAV1-gag组还是rAAV2-gag组,特异性CTL反应均较低,与阴性对照组相比均无显著性差异;两种载体免疫兔子也都可检测到特异性P24抗体,同样地,rAAV1-gag组显著高于rAAV2-gag组。结论:携带HIV-1gag基因的rAAV1或rAAV2以肌肉注射方式免疫小鼠主要诱导特异Gag的体液免疫反应;且rAAV1可诱导很强的抗HIV-1 Gag特异性抗体,抗体水平显著高于rAAV2。
