Abstract:
Objective:To construct a recombinant vaccine of Schistosoma japonicum (Sj) mediated by Enterococcus faecalis (Efs, rEfs-Sj26GST vaccine), and to study the expression of Sj26GST-GST fusion protein in the recombinant vaccine. Methods:The recombinant plasmid pGEX-Sj26GST was transformed into the susceptible strain Efs ATCC47077 by electroporation to construct rEfs-Sj26GST vaccine, and the plasmid was extracted for PCR identification. After induction of expression with isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), the products were analyzed and identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Western blot.Results:After PCR identification, a 676 bp fragment was amplified, which was consistent with the length of Sj26GST amplification fragment. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the relative molecular mass was 52 × 10 3, which was consistent with the band of Sj26GST-GST fusion protein. Western blot results showed that the Sj26GST-GST fusion protein expressed by rEfs-Sj26GST vaccine could be specifically recognized by the serum of Sj infected patients. Conclusion:The rEfs-Sj26GST vaccine is successfully constructed, and the Sj26GST-GST fusion protein expressed by recombinant vaccine can be specifically recognized by the serum of Sj infected patients.
