Abstract:
Objective To offered some prophase works by preparing Neurocan protein, antiserum, and assaying their characteristics, in order to construct the isopropy-β-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG)-participated DNA vaccine, which can neutralize the inhibitors in the injured CNS following the immune administration and then promote the nerve regeneration. Methods Neurocan gene was syntbetized with HisTag label in beginning and enzyme-cut sites at amphi- of the sequence. The prokaryotic expression plasmid, PET30a-Neurocan, was constructed as usual, converted into the Escherichia coli, and induced by IPTG to express positively. The interest protein was identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot respectively. The preimmune serum was as the negative control during the ELISA assay of antiserum valency. The immune serum was as the first antibody, and the goat-anti-rabbit labeling with alkaline phosphatase (AP) was employed as the second one. Coloration was with NBT/BCIP method. Results The correct sequence of the synthetic Neurocan gene was clearly showed by identification with enzyme-cut, PCR and sequencing. The Neurocan protein expressed by prokaryotic showed its molecular weigh as 55 000 following the SDS-PAGE identification, and it could specifically bind with anti-HisTag, which implied the interesting protein just as the expression product of Neurocan gene. The valency of antiserum was shown by ELISA as 1:1 000 000, the purpose strap of which was confirmed by Western blot. Conclusions Neurocan protein could be successfully expressed in prokaryotic, the antibody of which could be specifically obtained by immune administration to the rabbit. The Neuroncan antibody could bind with the Neurocan protein specifically.
