Objective To screen a human single-chain variable fragments(scFv)against antiGBM antibody.Methods Using phage display technique,the phage antibody library was panned by antiglomerular basement membrane(GBM)antibody which was coated in a micro-titer plate,one clone was found to have high affinity to anti-GBM antibody.The DNA sequence of the positive clone was determined.Results Along with the increase of rounds anti-GBM antibody specific phage antibody was highly enriched and screening efficiency was increased 137 folds than the firest round.ELISA and competition inhibition assay showed that the scFv had a specific combination character with anti-GBM antibody.DNA sequencing confirmed that the whole gene of scFv was 750 bp,and in accordance with humanized single-chain variable region antibody sequence structure.Conclusion The results suggested that the scFv fragment to anti-GBM antibody could be successfully selected by recombinant phage antibody technique,which will laid an experimental foundation for further research of the therapy of Goodpasture syndrome.

In order to remove invasive plasmids from Shigella flexneri 2a 2457T and Shigella sonnei S7 based on the principle of plasmid incompatibility Ori and inc genes were amplified by PCR from S. flexneri 2a invasive plasmids, and then they were cloned into plasmid pMD18 T, resulting recombinant plasmids pMDori and pMDinc After S flexneri 2a 2457T and S sonnei S7 were transformed with pMDori or pMDinc respectively Invasive plasmids were removed from S flexneri 2a 2457T and S sonnei S7

In the present study, the prokaryotic expression of glutathione transferase (GST) gene from Taenia solium and its immunological properties were investigated by means of biological informatics methods. The GST gene from T.solium was screened from the cDNA plasmid library of the adult worms. This gene was cloned into prokaryotic expression plasmid pET28a(+) and then expressed in E.coli BL21(DE3) after double enzyme digestion, PCR identification and IPTG induction. The expressed product was identified by SDS-PAGE and the recombinant protein was purified through purification column of His-Ni~(2+) protein. Meanwhile, the immunoreactivity of the purified protein was analyzed by Western blot assay. In these ways, the recombinants were successfully constructed and the highly purified proteins were obtained. It was demonstrated that these proteins could be recognized by sera of patients infected with T.asitica and T.rhynchus saginatus. From these observations, it is evident that highly efficient expression of GST of Taenia solium with definite immunoreactivity can be demonstrated in the prokaryotic expression system.

OBJECTIVE To detect ESBLs genes in 5 Shigella sonnei isolates.METHODS Susceptibility test to common antibiotics was performed through disk diffusion test,and ESBLs were confirmed according to CLSI.Conjugation experiment was performed to determine whether the resistance was transferable.The ESBLs gene was detected by PCR using universal primers for TEM,SHV,CTX-M,and the PCR products were also directly sequenced and analyzed.At the same time,the five isolates were analyzed by PFGE. RESULTS The five S.sonnei isolates were ESBLs producers and produced CTX-M-15 ESBLs,which were resistant to the most of the ?-lactams such as aztreonam,the first and second generation cephalosporins,cefotaxime,and non ?-lactam such as gentamicin,SF,but susceptible to ceftazidime,the 4th generation cephalosporins,Amikacin and meropenem.These strains were also intermediate to quinolones.CTX-M-15 gene could be transferred through conjugation.PFGE patterns of one isolate were different from the others.CONCLUSIONS Five S.sonnei isolates producing CTX-M-15 ESBLs are resistant to the most antibiotics.Clone spread is evident in these isolates.We should pay more attention to monitor these strains.
