Compared with water-soluble acrylic resin, the phase inversion of 2K-WPU occurs at lower water content. It is indicated by TEM that 2K-WPU parti-cles show a core-shell structure, in which HDI biuret is encapsulated by hydrophilic acrylic resin. 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI biuret has larger particle size and narrower distribution index, while for 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI iso-cyanurate, the latex not only has large particle size, but also has two-peak distribution. FTIR shows that the reaction be-tween HDI biuret and acrylic resin can complete in 12h. In addition, studies on effect of composition of acrylic resin on performance of 2K-WPU show that narrowing the polar difference between water-soluble acrylic resin and HDI biuret and improving the miscibility of two components are the key to prepare the transparent and high gloss films with high crosslinking density.展开更多

The recombinant A2 and 132m proteins were expressed in ~/a oo/i^uain BL21（DE3） and recovered from the inclusion body fraction. Soluble A2 proteins loaded with specific antigen peptides were refolded by dilution from the heavy chain in the presence of light chain 132m and HLA-A2-restricted peptide antigens. The refolded A2 monomers were biotinylated with a commercial biotinylation enzyme （BirA） and purified by low pressure anion exchange chromatography on a Q-Sepharose （fast flow） column.The tetramers were then formed by mixing A2 monomers with streptavidin-PE in a molar ratio of 4：1. Flow cytometry was used to confirm the expected tetramer staining of CD8^＋ T cells.RESULTS： Recombinant genes for HLA-A＊0201 heavy chain （A2） fused to a BirA substrate peptide （A2-BSP） and mature β2m from HLA-A2＋ donor leukocytes were successfully doned and highly expressed in E. coli, Two soluble monomeric A2-peptide complexes were reconstituted from A2-BSP in the presence of 132m and peptides loaded with either human cytomegalovirus pp65495-503 peptide （NLVPMVATV,NLV; designated as A2-NLV） or influenza virus matrix protein Mp58-66 peptide （GILGFVFTL, GIL; designated as A2-GIL）. Refolded A2-NLV or A2-GIL monomers were biotinylated and highly purified by single step anion exchange column chromatography. The tetramers were then formed by mixing the biotinylated A2-NLV or A2-GIL monomers with streptavidin-PE, leading to more than 80% multiplicationas revealed by SDS-PAGE under non-reducing, unboiled conditions. Flow cytometry revealed that these tetramers could specifically bind to CD8^＋ T cells from a HLA-A2^＋ donor,but failed to bind to those from a HLA-A2- donor.CONCLUSION： The procedure is simple and efficient for generating peptide-MHC tetramers.展开更多
