摘要
目的 探讨DNA疫苗pCI-S-IRES-ProTα的构建及体外表达。方法 选择编码乙肝表面抗原S基因片段、内核糖体进入位点(internal ribosome entry site,IRES)片段和胸腺素a原(prothymosin α,ProTα)基因片段,利用基因重组技术构建成DNA质粒pCI-S-IRES-ProTα,并将该DNA质粒转染成纤维细胞NIH3T3。结果 不仅可通过RT-PCR检测到其RNA的表达,而且ELISA也检测到其抗原表达。结论 构建的质粒可作为DNA疫苗,进一步用于免疫动物。
Objective To investigate the construction of DNA vaccine pCI - S - IRES - ProTα and its in vitro expression. Methods The DNA plasmid pCI - S - IRES - ProTα, which contained the S gene encoding surface antigen of HBV, internal ribosome entry site and cytokine prothymosin α gene, was constructed by gene technology. The plasmid PCI - S - IRES - ProTa was transferred into the cell line NIH3T3. The in vitro expression of DNA plasmid was observed. Results Transcripts of the plas- mid were detected by RT - PCR,and HBsAg was also detected by ELISA. Conclusion The plasmid pCI - S - IRES - ProTa can be used as a DNA vaccine.
