In this study, four antigen domains (ABCD) of the E2 gene was cloned from CSFV Shimen strain into the retroviral vector pBABE puro and expressed in eukaryotic cell (PK15) by an retroviral gene expression system, and the activity of recombinant E2 protein to induce immune responses was evaluated in rabbits. The results indicated that recombinant E2 protein can be recognized by fluorescence antibodies of CSFV and CSFV positive serum (Lanzhou Veterinary Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Lanzhou, China) using Western blot, indirect immunofluorescence antibody test (IFAT) and ELISA, Furthermore, anti-CSFV specific antibodies and lymphocyte proliferation were elicited and increased by recombinant protein after vaccination. In the challenge test, all of rabbits vaccinated with recombinant protein and Chinese vaccine strain (C-strain) were fully protected from a rabbit spleen virus challenge. These results indicated that a retroviral-based epitope-vaccine carrying the major antigen domains of E2 is able to induce high level of epitope-specific antibodies and exhibits similar protective capability with that induced by the C-strain, and encourages further work towards the development of a vaccine against CSFV infection.展开更多

The product of PCK was cloned into pMD18-T vector, and then transfected Escherichia Coli JMI00. The recombinant plasmids were amplified by PCR and were sequenced. From the nucleotide sequence of the amplified products, phylogenetie analyses were performed and genotypes or subgenotypes were identified. The results indicated that the E2 gene fragment of HB-DCZ strain contained 1277bp nucleotides, and had 89.4%, 70.7%, 97.6%, 68.9%, 67.2% sequence similarity with Osloss, OregonC24V, Changchun184, ZM195, NADL, respectively. In conclusion, HB-DCZ strain is closely related to BVDV Osloss, Changchun184, and belongs to subgenotype lb.展开更多

Results The full length of HPV 16 E2 gene was successfully cloned. In comparison with the prototype accepted by GenBank, six point mutations in HPV 16 E2 nucleotide acid sequence were identified. Of them, three were missense, and one was in the overlapping E4 gene and was synonymous to E4. Conclusion HPV16 E2 gene was successfully cloned, and some nucleotide acids in its sequence were different from the prototype.展开更多
