Then, the cSZl gene of Eirneda acervulina Changchun strain was amplified by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and sequenced. [ Result] Compared with the published cSZ1 gene sequence, five nucleotide mutation sites appeared in the cSZ1 gene of Eirneda acervulina Changchun strain. They had a nucleotide sequence similarity of 99.47%, and their encoding region had a nucleotide sequence similarity of 99.61%. Among these mutation sites, two appeared in cSZl gene ORF, and A185G mutation led to substitution of valine by isoleucine. [Conclusion] Protein encoded by cSZ1 gene can be used as a candidate antigen for vaccine development.展开更多
