Methods: The full length of NOR1 gene was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and digested with BamHI and XhoI restriction endonucleases. The plasmid pGEX-4T-2 was also digested with BamHI and XhoI, then the NOR1 gene was inserted into vector pGEX-4T-2. The recombinant expression vector pGEX-4T-2/NOR1 was identified by sequencing and restriction enzymes digestion. E.coli Jm105 transformed with the recombinant plasmid was induced by IPTG to express the GST fusion protein. The purified targeted protein obtained by affinity chromatography was used to immunize New Zealand rabbits to acquire antiserum. Antiserum was analyzed with immunoblot. Results: The 1.25 kb NOR1 gene was successfully isolated. After induction, a new anticipated protein of 74 kDa appeared on sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide (SDS-PAGE). The result was confirmed by Western blot analysis, and the purified targeted protein was obtained by affinity chromatography. The titer of antiserum was 1:8. Conclusion: A high level of expression of GST-NOR1 is obtained in JM 105, and its antiserum can be prepared successfully.展开更多

The cDNA has an open reading frame of 1 697 bp, which encodes a polypeptide of 565 amino acids. The coding region of the cDNA was inserted into a prokaryotic expression vector pET-21a(+) and over-expressed inE. coli BL21 (DE3). The fusion proteins were found largely in an insoluble inclusion bodies. The purified fusion protein was used to immunize rabbits to obtain polyclonal antiserum with titer of 1×105. Western blot analysis by using this particular antiserum showed that the higher expression level of PDS in mature stigma than in leaves and stamen, and the higher expression level of PDS in mature stigma than in young stigma.

HSV-1 infected-cell protein 27 (ICP27) is an immediate-early regulatory phosphoprotein homologous to gene products identified in all classes of herpesviruses so far. To raise the antiserum to ICP27 for further characterization of its biological function, the ICP27 gene was cloned into the pET-28a (+) vector, then ICP27 protein was expressed in E. coli and purified by nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni 2+ -NTA) affinity resin column, finally the purified protein was used to raise antiserum. Western blot analysis demonstrated that the antiserum recognized the recombinant protein, and the antiserum was able to probe the ICP27 in HSV-1 infected cells with high specificity by immunofluorescence assay (IFA). Therefore, the specific antiserum will provide a valuable tool for further studies investigating ICP27's biological function during HSV-1 infection.展开更多

If a human trophic strain of avian influenza viruses replicates in livestock including pigs and chickens, it may have high infectivity and pathogenicity to humans. The most effective method of reducing the outbreaks of influenza would be prophylaxis with an effective vaccine as well as anti-viral drugs including Oseltamivir and Zanamivir hydrate. In this study, chicken antiserum against A/H5N1 virus was produced: the antisera from immunized adult chicken had a strong binding activity to A/H5N1 viral antigens by ELISA. Furthermore, the antiserum strongly inhibited hemaggregation of erythrocytes and cytopathic effects in MDCK cells, indicating a strong neutralization activity against A/H5N1 infections. Interestingly, the mortality rate of chicks inoculated with A/H5N1 virus was dramatically decreased with the antiserum injection. These results suggest that antiserum may be a potentially effective protective and therapeutic modality for A/H5N1 infection.展开更多

The complete ORF of E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase is 681 bp long and its encoded protein showed 100% sequence identity to homologue RING-H2 finger protein (XP_009407047.1) of Musa_acuminata. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase contains the Ring finger domain in C terminus and eight cross-brace motifs are found in the domain. The target gene was digested by EcoR V and EcoR I, and was inserted into prokaryotic expression vector pET-32a of the same digestions to obtain the plasmid pET32a-E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. The recombinant plasmid was introduced into Escherichia coli strain BL21 (DE3), and induced at 25°C with 0.4 mmol/L IPTG for 6 hours. The soluble fusion protein was expressed and high purity fusion protein was obtained by Ni<sup>2+</sup>-NTA agarose affinity chromatography purification. The fusion protein was injected into mice 3 times to prepare the antiserum. Western blot analysis showed a specific protein band was detected in total protein sample of banana leaves, but not for the samples of wild-type Nicotiana benthamiana (N.B.) and wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana (A.T.), implying the antiserum was specific to banana E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase.展开更多
