用lac基因筛选表达狂犬病毒糖蛋白的重组痘苗病毒

为了研制基因工程狂犬病疫苗,我国于1991年首次报道了在痘苗病毒天坛株中表达狂犬病毒糖蛋白,但报道中重组病毒的选择是先经人骨髓瘤细胞(TK-143)在诱变剂5-溴脱氧尿苷(BrudR)作用下通过标记拯救技术筛选出携带有同源基因的重组病毒,然后再利用重组病毒中携带的Lac基因为选择标记,通过噬斑纯化获得重组病毒,用这种选择方式获得的重组病毒,经过了TK-143细胞和BrudR,因此不宜发展成疫苗,本研究探索不经过TK-143细胞和BrudR,仅利用Lac基因为选择标记,直接在鸡胚细胞上通过噬斑纯化获得重组病毒,现将研究结果报道如下。

Antigenic and Functional Analyses of Glycoprotein of Rabies Virus Using Monoclonal Antibodies

Thirty-five monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against glycoprotein (G protein) of the RC-HL strain of the rabies virus have been established. Using these MAbs, two antigenic sites (I and II) were delineated on the G protein of the RC-HL strain in a competitive binding assay. Of these, 34 MAbs recognized the epitopes on site IL Site II was further categorized into 10 subsites according to their patterns in a competitive binding assay. Each site II-specific MAb showed 5 to 23 nonreciprocal competitions. The reactivities of 35 MAbs to rabies and rabies-related viruses in an indirect immunofluorescent antibody test showed that six MAbs in group A binded to rabies and rabies-related viruses and eight MAbs in group E reacted only with rabies viruses, considering that the former represent the genus-specific of Lyssavirus and the latter are rabies virus-specific. From biological assays, 28 of the 35 MAbs showed neutralization activity, 31 showed hemagglutination inhibition (HI) activity, and 18 showed immunolysis (IL) activity. The MAbs recognizing neutralization epitopes fell into at least three groups: those exhibiting both HI and IL activity, those showing only HI activity, and those showing neither HI nor IL activity. All IL epitopes overlap with HA epitopes. Five of the nine MAbs which reacted with the antigen treated by sodium dodecyl sulfate in ELISA were not reduced, or reduced only slightly, in the titer. None of the MAbs reacted with 2-mercaptoethanol-treated antigen. Only one MAb that recognized site I reacted with the denatured G protein in a Western blotting assay, indicating that its epitope is linear. These results suggest that almost all of the epitopes on the G protein of the rabies virus are conformation-dependent and the G protein forms a complicated antigenic structure.     

A Unique Mutation of Glycoprotein Gene of the Attenuated RC-HL Strain of Rabies Virus,a Seed Virus Used for Production of Animal Vaccine in Japan

Although the RC-HL strain of rabies virus is avirulent in adult mice, the amino acid at position 333 of its G protein is arginine, which is thought to be necessary for virulence in adult mice upon intracerebral inoculation of the virus. This result suggests that besides arginine at position 333, some other positions of G protein might also be involved in determining the virulence of rabies virus.

Target Cells of Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes Directed to the Individual Structural Proteins of Rabies Virus

Target cells of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) directed to the individual structural proteins (except for the large polymerase (L) protein) of rabies virus were established by expressing only the respective protein in murine neuroblastoma (NA) and murine macrophage (J774-1) cell lines. Mice infected with the ERA strain of rabies virus developed CTL responses to all of these rabies virus proteins. The cytotoxic activity was abrogated by pretreatment of the effector cells with anti-CD8 monoclonal antibody (MAb) and complement but not with anti-CD4 MAb. Cell lysis by CTL was blocked in the presence of anti-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class 1 antibodies in J774-1 cell lines. Rabies virus-infected cells express these proteins at the surface, which can be recognized and lysed by the respective CTL. Mice immunized with β-propiolactone-inactivated virus induced a CTL response against glycoprotein but not against internal viral components. This assay system might be useful for further analysis of the possible contribution of these proteins in the cell-mediated immune protection against rabies.     

Mapping and Characterization of a Sequential Epitope on the Rabies Virus Glycoprotein Which Is Recognized by a Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibody,RG719

We have established a murine hybridoma cell line RG719 which produces a rabies virus-neutralizing IgM-type monoclonal antibody (referred to as MAb RG719). Immunoblot analysis indicated that the antibody recognized a sequential epitope of G protein. Among four rabies virus strains tested, the antigenicity to MAb RG719 was absent from the Nishigahara strain, while the other three strains (HEP, ERA and CVS) reacted to the MAb. Studies with deletion mutants of the G protein indicated that the epitope was located in a middle region of the primary structure of G protein, ranging from position 242 to 300. By comparing the estimated amino acid sequence of the four strains, we found in this region two amino acids (at positions 263 and 291) which are common to three of those strains but are not shared by the Nishigahara strain. The site-directed point mutagenesis revealed that replacement of phenylalanine-263 by leucine destroyed the epitope of the HEP G protein, while the epitope was generated on the Nishigahara G protein whose leucine-263 was replaced by phenylalanine. These observations suggest that phenylalanine-263 is essential for constructing the epitope for MAb RG719. The synthetic 20-mer peptide produced by mimicking the amino acid sequence (ranging from amino acid positions 249 to 268) of the presumed epitope region was shown to bind specifically to MAb RG719 and also to raise the virus-neutralizing antibodies in rabbits. Vaccination with the HEP vaccine produced in Japan induced in humans and rabbits production of significant amounts of the antibodies which reacted with the 20-mer peptide.
