Abstract:
Objective To optimize the conditions of the expression of fusion protein GST-SjMP10 and to evaluate the value of fusion protein GST-SjMP10 for diagnosis of schistosomiasis.Methods The optimal concentration of IPTG for the expression of fusion protein GST-SjMP10 was chosen in inducing the expression of GST-SjMP10 with different concentration of IPTG,and the soluble fusion protein GST-SjMP10 was identified by SDS-PAGE.The fusion protein GST-SjMP10 was purified by chromatographic affinity with glutathione Sepharose 4B gel.The sensitivity and specificity of purified fusion protein GST-SjMP10 for diagnosis of schistosomiasis were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)to detect the IgG antibody in sera from the patients with acute schistosomiasis,advanced schistosomiasis and clonorchiasis as well as healthy subjects.Results Most of the expressed fusion protein GST-SjMP10 was in soluble status when the concentration of IPTG was reduced to 0.1 mmol/L and the fusion protein GST-SjMP10 could be purified by chromatographic affinity.The positive rate of anti-GST-SjMP10 antibody in the sera from the patients with acute and chronic schistosomiasis japonica was 97.5% and 96.7% respectively.No cross reactivity of the fusion protein GST-SjMP10 was found in the detection for the sera from clonorchiasis patients,and no false positive was found in the detection for the sera of healthy subjects.Conclusion The fusion protein GST-SjMP10 was expressed successfully and showed high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of schistosomiasis japonicum.
