Abstract:
To obtain non-pathogenic rabies virus glycoprotein(RV-G),we expressed RV-G in Saccaromyces Cerevisiae(S.cerevisiae).In our study,tat-G fusion gene was cloned into the expression vector pYes2.0,which allows expression of a foreign gene in the yeast cells under the control of GAl1 promoter.Transforma-tion was performed by using lithium-treated yeast cells and several Ura+-tranformants were isolated.Ac-cording to the relative mobility in SDS-PAGE,we know probably two forms(designated as yGI and yGⅡ) of RV-G analogues produced in S.cerevisiae,their molecular weights were estimated as 66 kD and 56 kD,respectively.On the other hand,there was a specific band about 56 kD shown in western blot result.Com-bining precursors’ achievements,we will draw a conclusion that trans-membrane domain(TD) and cyto-plasmic domain have a negative regulation on RV-G antigen immunogenicity in S.cerevisiae.
