[...[Objective] This study aimed to develop an indirect ELISA to detect the antibodies against Actinobacil us pleuropneumoniae (APP) using the recombinant ApxⅡA1 protein expressed in prokaryotic cells as the antigen. [Method] The major epi-tope domain of ApxⅡ was cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a (+) to obtain the recombinant plasmid pET-ApxⅡA1, which was then transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3) for expression. The immunogenicity of the recombinant pro-tein was analyzed by western-blotting. After that, the purified recombinant protein was used as the coating antigen in the indirect ELISA for detecting the antibodies against APP. Final y, the concentration of coated antigen and the dilution of serum were optimized. [Result] Proved by enzyme digestion and sequencing, the recombi-nant plasmid pET-ApxⅡA1 was constructed successful y. The recombinant protein was highly expressed in prokaryotic cells, and Western-blotting analysis showed that it was recognized specifical y by positive serum of APP. The indirect ELISA could detect the antibody against APP with the purified recombinant protein as the coating antigen. The optimal concentration of coated antigen was 1.23 μg/ml and the opti-mal dilution of serum was 1:100. Compared with a commercial ELISA kit detecting antibody against ApxⅣ, the coincidence rate of the indirect ELISA was 90.4%. [Conclusion] Our results indicated that the indirect ELISA is sensitive and specific, and suitable for evaluating the effect of APP vaccine and epidemiological surveys.展开更多

Then it expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3), and His-tag fusion protein of high yield was obtained. It was found that the fusion protein existed in E. coli mainly as inclusion bodies. The bioinformatics analysis indicates that LCN61 is C2H2 type zinc-finger protein containing four C2H2 zinc-finger motifs. This work provides a theory for functional research of lcn61 gene.展开更多
