Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2024;37(8):957-963+969
ObjectiveTo express and purify the P2 domain of 5 genotypes(GⅠ.1,GⅡ.2,GⅡ.3,GⅡ.4,and GⅡ.17)of norovirus(NV)in prokaryotic expression system and prepare their antisera.MethodsThe bioinformatics method was used to analyze the sequence conservation of P2 domains of different genotypes of NV. Then the P2 DNA sequence was synthesized and subcloned into pET24a vector to construct the recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid,which was transformed into E.coli BL21(DE3)competent cells and induced by IPTG. 30 female BALB/c mice were immunized with the purified recombinant P2 protein to prepare antiserum. The titer and cross reaction of antiserum were detected by ELISA,the specificity was detected by Western blot,and the recognition and binding ability to wild-type NV were analyzed by dotblot.ResultsThe expressed recombinant P2 proteins showed purity of over 90% with the relative molecular mass of about15 000. The expression levels of P2 protein of GⅠ.1,GⅡ.2,GⅡ.3,GⅡ.4,and GⅡ.17 were 60,26. 4,19. 8,16. 3 and33. 3 mg/L,respectively. The antiserum titers against five genotypes of NV P2 antigens were all over 1∶128 000,which well recognized their corresponding P2 antigens,while showed no interaction with unrelated P2 antigens and no crossreaction with recombinant human group A rotavirus VP7 antigen and recombinant Helicobacter pylori uroenzyme antigen,and had good recognition and binding ability to wild-type NV.ConclusionFive genotypes of NV P2 antigens epidemic in China were successfully expressed and purified by prokaryotic expression system. The prepared antisera had high titer and good specificity,which laid a foundation of the establishment of rapid and on-site diagnosis technology of NV.
2.A preliminary report on solid-state fermentation of Ganoderma lucidum with Radix Astragali containing medium
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2004;2(3):216-8
OBJECTIVE: To test the practicability of the solid-state fermentation for medicinal fungi by fermenting Ganoderma lucidum with Radix Astragali containing medium. METHODS: Ganoderma lucidum was fermented in ordinary medium, drug-containing medium (containing Radix Astragali) and selenium-rich drug-containing medium respectively. The polysaccharide contents of fermentation products from the three kinds of culture media were tested at different time, and the changes were compared. RESULTS: The polysaccharide contents of fermentation products from the three kinds of culture media were 4.65%, 3.76% and 4.50% respectively and their relative standard deviation were 1.61%, 1.99% and 1.86% respectively. By observing the changes of the contents of polysaccharide, protein and total saponin in fermentation products from the drug-containing medium at different time, it was found that the 28th fermentation day was the time when secondary metabolism was most active, and it should be the fermented terminal point. CONCLUSION: The fermentative combination of Ganoderma lucidum and Radix Astragali is practicable.

10.Purification Technology of Mucopolysaccharides in Holothuria scabra Jaeger and Pharmacologic Activity of the Products
Chinese Journal of Marine Drugs 1994;0(01):-
The viscosity of mucopolysaccharides in Holothuria scabra Jaeger was related to temperature, time, concentration of mucopolysaccharides and H 2O 2 during the decoloration, which was found through the experiment, in that the rise of temperature, elongation of time, decrease of concentration of Mucopolysaccharides and increase of that of H 2O 2 all lead to the decrease of the viscosity. Within a certain limit, the activity of mucopolysaccharides rises with the viscosity decrease in the experiment of acute cerebral ischemia in mice. So that it is important controlling the craft in the mucopolysaccharides production.
