Abstract: mRNA encoding porcine FcR gamma subunit obtained from PAMs of 90-day piglets was transcribed into cDNA through RT-PCR. Recombinant plasmid pET-FcRγ was constructed successfully by inserting the cDNA sequence into pET-32a, and expressed as soluble protein with a molecular weight of about 29 kDa. Following purification, recombinant protein FcRγ-His was used to immune mouse, and polyclonal antibody against it was obtained. Western-blotting indicated that such polyclonal antibody could react specifically with FcRγ-His. Indirect ELISA shows that the titer of the polyclonal antibody is 1∶ 8000, revealing the good immunogenicity of FcRγ-His. All these results provide the foundation for further studying the structure and function of FcR gamma subunit.
