HPV 18 E6 mRNA was expressed in yeast and there was no self-activation and toxicity in AH109. Seven proteins that interacted with HPV18 E6, including transmembrane protein 87B, phosphonoformate immuno-associated protein 5, vimentin, KM-HN-1 protein, dedicator of cytokinesis 7, vaccinia related kinase 2 and a hypothetical protein, were identified. It was suggested that yeast two-hybrid system is an efficient for screening interacting proteins. The high-risk HPV 18 E6 oncogene may interact with the proteins, which may be associated with signal transduction and transcriptional control, epithelial cell invasion and migration, as well as humoral and cellular immune etc. This investigation provides functional clues for further exploration of potential oncogenesis targets for cancer biotherapy.展开更多

[Method] The re-combinant vector pGBKT7-N of PEDV N gene was constructed and used as the bait plasmid to screen the proteins interacting with N protein ofPEDV from the cDNA library of porcine alveolar macrophage (PAM) by yeast two-hybrid method. [Result] There was no toxicity and self activationof bait protein in yeast hybridization system, and six proteins (FTH1, LGALS3, CORO1C, SNRPG, KRTAP5-3, ZNF598) interacting with N proteinwere indentified. It was confirmed that LGALS3 and SNRPG had specific interaction with N protein by return experiment and co-immunoprecipitation(CoIP) test. [Conclusion] The study lays a foundation for further studying the function of PEDV N protein and the pathogenic mechanism of PEDV.展开更多
A hybrid gene encoding several putative protective epitopes from erythrocytic stage antigens (MSA1,MSA2 and RESA) of P. falciparum as well as exgenous T cell enhancer epitopes from interleukin-1 and tetanus toxin was ...A hybrid gene encoding several putative protective epitopes from erythrocytic stage antigens (MSA1,MSA2 and RESA) of P. falciparum as well as exgenous T cell enhancer epitopes from interleukin-1 and tetanus toxin was synthesized chemically. This gene (named HGFC) was cloned and connected with another hybrid gene (HPFA) synthesized previously to make a bigger hybrid gene (HGFCAC). HGFC and HGFCAC were cloned in an expression vector pWR450-1 and transformed into E. Coli JM109. The engineered bacteria could express fusion proteins with molecular weights of 65 and 77 kDa after inducing with isopropylthio-β-D-galactoside (IPTG). The expression rate was about 35% of total bacterial proteins. The expressed products showed sepcific immunological reaction with rabbit antibodies against P. falciparum peptide Glu-Glu-Asn-Val-Glu-His-Asp-Ala (EENVEHDA)by Western blotting. The fusion proteins were pruified by precipitation with amonium sulfate. gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography and the purity was 82%. The purified protein reacted specifically with mouse immune serum against falciparum blood stage antigens by dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (dot-ELISA).The fusion protein was emulsified with Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA) and used to immunize rabbits. The immune serum can recognize P. falciparum erythrocytic stage antigens of Fcc-1/HN strain and Yunnan strain and had weak cross reaction with P. vivax,but had no reaction with P. cynomlogi and P. berghei antigens. The protective effect of the antibody was tested by in vitro inhibition test to cultured falciparum parasites. Preliminary results indicated that the immune sera could effectively reduce the invasion rates of the parasites to red blood cells and inhibit the growth of the in vitro cultured falciparum parasites. The inhibitory capacity of the immune sera to parasite invasion is enhanced as the amount of the sera increases and the incubation time of the sera with the parasites is prolonged.It was shown that after 72 h incubation at 20% concentration with the parasites, the serum can suppress the multiplication of P.falciparum growth in vitro to a level of 80%.The immune sera caused dispersion of the parasite cytoplasm,atrophy of parasites,agglutination of free merozoites and degeneration of schizonts.展开更多
