摘要: 为了研究RHDV病毒样粒子作为载体提呈外源B细胞表位的能力,以兔出血症病毒(RHDV)衣壳蛋白VP60为载体,构建携带FMDV B细胞表位(FMDV VP1 B细胞表位200~213aa)的VP60嵌合蛋白,研究外源基因对VP60蛋白的表达、病毒样颗粒(VLPs)的装配及免疫原性的影响。分别在RHDV衣壳蛋白的C端、N端、306和307位氨基酸之间插入外源B细胞表位(FMDV VP1 B细胞表位200~213aa),得到嵌合 VP60 基因。利用杆状病毒表达系统表达嵌合蛋白,分别命名为VP60-2F、VP60-306F和VP60-578F。经IFA、SDS-PAGE和Western Blot方法鉴定嵌合蛋白的表达,通过电镜观察嵌合蛋白自聚为病毒样颗粒的能力,通过动物试验研究其免疫原性。结果显示,嵌合VP60蛋白在杆状病毒表达系统中得到高效表达,可自聚形成病毒样颗粒,免疫小鼠后可以产生针对VP60和B细胞表位特异的免疫应答。该研究为嵌合VP60 VLPs的形成及结构功能的研究奠定基础,同时为RHDV-VLPs作为外源B细胞表位展示载体的可行性提供依据。

Abstract: To explore the capacity of antigen presentation of the foreign B-cell epitopes by virus-like particles (VLPs) of rabbit hemorrhagic (RHDV), the VLPs of RHDV displaying B-cell epitope of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) were constructed.The sequences of a FMDV B-cell epitope were fused to the N-terminal, C-terminal and inserted between 306th and 307th aa of capsid protein of RHDV.The fused genes were cloned into the donor vector pFastBacTMHTA and three recombinant baculoviruses (rAc-VP60-2F, rAc-VP60-306F, rAc-VP60-578F) were constructed using Bac-to-Bac baculovirus expression system.These recombinant proteins were expressed effectively in insect cells as confirmed by IFA, SDS-PAGE and Western Blot.The immunogenicity of all chimeric VLPs was examined in mice.The results indicated the recombinant proteins could react with both anti-VP60 monoclonal antibody and anti-FMDV polyclonal antibody.And all recombinant proteins could self-assemble into VLPs by electron microscopy analysis.Furthermore, all chimeric VLPs were able to induce strong VP60-specific antibodies responses.In addition, there were significant differences of peptide-specific IgG antibodies induced by chimeric proteins, compared to that of VP60 group.The significant levels of serum antibodies against B-cell epitopes of FMDV demonstrated the feasibility of RHDV-VLP serving as a presentation carrier for foreign B-cell epitopes.
