In order to improve the accuracy for quantitating the bovine foamy virus (BFV) in vitro,we developed a baby hamster kidney cell (BHK)-21-derived indicator cell line containing a plasmid that encodes the firefly luciferase driven by the BFV long terminal repeat promoter (LTR,from-7 to 1012).The BFV titer could be determined by detecting the luciferase expression since the viral trans-activator BTas protein activates the promoter activity of the LTR.One clone,designated BFVL,was selected from ten neomycin-res... 相似文献

In order to quantitate the bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) infection in vitro, a BIV indicator cell line (BIVL) was established by transfecting baby hamster kidney cells with reporter plasmids containing
the firefly luciferase gene driven by a BIV long terminal repeat promoter. The BIV activates promoter activity of the LTR
to express luciferase upon infection. BIV infection could therefore by quantified by detection of luciferase activity. Compared
to standard assays used to detect BIV infection, the BIVL-based assay is 10 times more sensitive than the the CPE-based assay,
and has similar sensitivity with the viral capsid protein Western blot assay. BIV indicator cell line could detect BIV infection
specifically. Luciferase activity of BIV infected BIVL cells showed a time dependent manner, and 60 h post infection is the
optimal time to detect BIV infection. Luciferase activity of BIVL cells correlates with the BIV capsid protein expression.
Moreover, a linear relationship was found between MOI and the activated intensity of luciferase expression. In brief, the
BIV indicator cell line is an easy, robust and quantitive method for monitoring BIV infection. 相似文献

1. The strength and activity of several viral promoters in human neuroblasts were evaluated in vitro.
2. Several luciferase reporter gene contructs under the control of different viral promoters (HIV-1 LTR, HTLV-I LTR, MMTV LTR, RSV LTR, CMV, SV40), in the presence or in the absence of the viral SV40 enhancer, were transfected into two well-established human neural cell lines, including one derived from human embryonic olfactory cells (B4) and one derived from an adrenal neuroblastoma (SH-SY-5Y). The epithelial cell line HeLa was used as a control.3. The enzymatic activity of luciferase was evaluated after normalization with an internal control. The results indicated that in the context of the reporter gene constructs, the CMV promoter alone was, overall, the most active in any tested cell line. However, addition of the SV40 enhancer to the CMV promoter abolished luciferase activity in SH-SY-5Y cells while significantly increasing luciferase expression in the CNS derived B4 fetal neuroblasts.4. The results suggest that gene therapeutic vectors aimed to promote enzymatic activity through gene transfer into undifferentiated human neural cells are feasible. However, since differences in promoter activity in neuroectodermal-derived cells are very relevant, gene construct variants should be considered to optimize the system. 相似文献

The Borf1 protein is encoded by an immediate-early gene of the bovine foamy virus (BFV) and plays a key role in the viral life cycle. Borf1 is a DNA binding protein which can transactivate both the long terminal repeat (LTR) and the internal promoter (IP) of BFV by specifically binding to the transactivation responsive element (TRE). To analyze the subcellular localization of Borf1 during the BFV life cycle, this gene was cloned into a prokaryotic expression vector and expressed in a soluble form. After the purification and immunization, we raised the mouse anti-Borf1 serum with a high titer based on ELISA results. Western blot analysis showed that the antiserum could specifically recognize the Borf1 protein that was expressed in 293T cells. With this specific serum, we revealed the nuclear and cytoplasmic localization of Borf1 in HeLa cells that was transfected with Borf1. Moreover, the immuno-fluorescence assay also showed that the localization of Borf1 during the infection and transfection of BFV was identical. 相似文献

Background
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are pleiotropic members of the TGF-beta superfamily which regulate many biological processes during development and adult tissue homeostasis and are implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of human diseases. Their involvement in both normal and aberrant physiology creates a need for rapid, sensitive and methodologically simple assays to evaluate their activity from a variety of biological samples. Previously alkaline phosphatase based assays, ELISA and luciferase based bioassays have been developed to evaluate either individual or total BMP activity. In this paper, we describe a highly sensitive, rapid and specific cell based assay for the simultaneous quantification of total and isoform specific BMP activity from biological samples.Results
A C2C12 cell line stably transfected with a reporter plasmid consisting of the BMP response element (BRE) from the Id1 promoter fused to a luciferase reporter gene was generated. Exposure of this cell line to human recombinant BMP2, BMP4, BMP6, BMP7, BMP9 and BMP10 induced the expression of luciferase which was quantified using a luminometer. This assay was specific for BMP activity as the other TGF-β superfamily members TGF-β 1, Nodal and Mullerian Inhibiting Substance (MIS) did not induce the reporter. Pretreatment of samples with isoform specific BMP blocking antibodies coupled with isoform specific titration analysis allowed the simultaneous identification and quantification of BMP4, BMP6 and BMP9 in serum samples.Conclusion
The assay is rapid (<48 hours) and can be used to simultaneously measure isoform specific and total BMP activity in complex solutions. 相似文献10.

The baculovirus–insect cell expression system has been used to produce functional recombinant proteins. The antigen GA733 is a cell‐surface glycoprotein highly expressed on most human colorectal carcinoma cells. Conditions for the expression of GA733 fused to the human immunoglobulin IgG Fc fragment (GA733‐Fc) were optimized in the baculovirus expression system. Several variable factors were adjusted to optimize expression, including the cell line (Sf9 and High Five), multiplicity of infection (MOI) value (0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 3), post‐infection time (48, 72 and 96 h) and harvested sample (cell culture media (CM) or cell lysate (CL)). In addition, two pFastBac Dual vectors carrying the GA733‐Fc gene were constructed to express GA733‐Fc with or without an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention sequence KDEL and used to generate recombinant baculoviruses. Western blot showed that expression depended on the conditions used to express the recombinant proteins. The protein production level and secretion capability differed in each cell line. In Sf9 cells, the highest expression in the CM and CL was obtained with GA733‐Fc at 96 h post‐infection at 0.1 MOI and with GA733‐FcK at 96 h post‐infection at 3 MOI, respectively. In High Five cells, the highest expression in the CM and CL was obtained with GA733‐Fc at 48 h post‐infection at 1 MOI and with GA733‐FcK at 48 h post‐infection at 3 MOI, respectively. These results suggest that the MOI value, post‐infection time and subcellular localization affect expression, and that these conditions can be modified to optimize protein expression in the baculovirus–insect cell system. 相似文献

It is reported that cationic liposomes are capable of transfecting embryos in unincubated fertile chicken eggs and that the cationic liposome, TransfectAceTM, has superior properties to LipofectinTM. In order to determine the duration of expression of genes introduced in this way, embryos were transfected with an expression vector encoding the firefly luciferase cDNA under the control of the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat (LTR). Luciferase activity could be observed consistently in day 3 embryos and activity was detectable up to day 8 of incubation. The relative expression of luciferase under the control of different viral promoters was compared in transfected chicken embryo fibroblasts and day 3 embryos. The cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter and the SV40 early promoter directed the highest amount of expression in fibroblasts while the Rous sarcoma virus LTR caused the highest amount of expression in embryos. Chicken embryo fibroblasts were transfected with the luciferase vector in order to examine duration of reporter gene expressionin vitro. Luciferase expression was decreased exponentially over a 24-day period after which point luciferase activity could no longer be detected. These data suggest that stable integration of transfected DNA using liposomes is a rare event. Nevertheless, liposome-mediated transfection of embryos is suitable for the examination of promoter activityin vivo and may be a useful method to transfect genes to study embryonic development. 相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate quantitatively the luciferase activity of gene constructs with viral and hybrid enhancers and promoters in bovine preimplantation embryos by using firefly luciferase reporter genes. In Experiment I, to examine the stability of the luciferase, bioluminescence intensity of bovine embryos injected with the luciferase gene driven by the SV40 early promoter and enhancer (SVEluc) was measured with a luminometer at 2 days after microinjection. The results indicated that the bioluminescence could be analysed at any time within 30 min because the luciferase activity was constant during the measurement period from 5 to 30 min. In Experiment II, the luciferase expression of fertilized oocytes injected with four gene constructs (TKEluc, TK6WEluc, SVEluc, and Miwluc) was analysed by using a photon imaging system at 2 or 6 days following microinjection. The results from Experiment II indicated that the reporter gene governed by the Miw promoter (RSV LTR and chicken β-actin promoter) was expressed more intensively in bovine morulae and blastocysts than three other gene constructs. In Experiment III, the effect of SV40 enhancer was investigated when fused downstream to the luciferase cDNA of the Miwluc vector. The results showed that SV40 enhancer further activated the luciferase activity of the Miw promoter in bovine preimplantation embryos. It was concluded, therefore, that the Miw promoter together with the SV40 enhancer would confer the strongest expression of the firefly luciferase reporter gene among the gene constructs tested in preimplantation bovine embryos.
