2.Screening of Phage Display Peptide Libraries Using ComplexBiological Systems as Selector Targets
Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2001;28(1):49-51
During recent years, some new methods for phage display panning have been developed by using complex biological systems instead of purified antigens, antibodies or receptors as selector targets. These complex biological systems include living cells, viruses, mouse tissues and tumors etc. The peptides identified by using tumors as selector molecules can selectively home to blood vessels of experimental tumors and may have potential applications in targeted anti-tumor treatment.

Objective To study the character of transformation of H.pylori into coccoid form under oxidative stress, and the changes in the biological charasteristics after transformation. Methods The coccoid form of H.pylori was studied with bacteriological, enymological, and genetical methods to identify its differences from the original form. Animal experiment was conducted to determine its implantation capacity. Results Morphological transformation from spiral to coccoid form occurred with the prolongation of culture under oxygen stress. The metabolic activity was reduced gradually, finally maintained at a lower level. The activities of urease, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase were decreased markedly. The mRNA levels of main virulence factors were declined. Both mRNA and activities of enzyme of Sod B and Kat retained high levels. A part of the coccoid forms showed reversion to helical form, and colonization in mice stomach could be found after being inoculated to mice. Conclusions The metabolism and virulence of H.pylori were all lowered under oxidative stress, but a part of the coccoid form may be viable. Sod B and Kat may play an important role in the oxygen metabolism of H.pylori.

Objective To investigate the fermentation conditions for the heat-labile enterotoxin B subunit (LTB) of genetic recombinant E.coli. Methods The effects of different kinds of media, the range of pH, the induction time, the glucose concentration, and the fed-batch on LTB level in 10-liter fermenter under the condition of cascade controlling dissolved oxygen content were analyzed. Results Under the established conditions, the cell output per liter was 40.5g, and the expression level was 30.6%. Conclusion The results indicate that the stable fermentation technology with high efficiency has been established.

Objective To clone hpaA gene of H.pylori and construct its eukaryotic expression plasmid. Methods Gene hpaA amplificated from genome of H.pylori 11637 strain by PCR was subcloned into pMD18-T vector. Then hpaA cut down from the vector with restriction enzyme was inserted to pTCAE, and the product confirmed by restriction enzyme digestion and sequence was transformed to E.coli DH5?. pT-hpaA was transfected into CHO cell by electroporation, and HpaA protein was detected by Western blot. Results hpaA gene was inserted into pTCAE and the immunological reaction band with anti-HpaA serum at MW 30 000 was detected by Western blot. Conclusion Eukaryotic expression plasmid of hpaA of H.pylori is successfully constructed. Western blot analysis demonstrates that the expression of HpaA protein can be detected in culture supernatants of transfeced CHO cells, which lays the foundation for the further study.

Methods The ureB gene fragment was inserted into a eukaryotic expression vector pTCAE, and pTCAEureB was constructed. A total of 60 BALB/c mice were randomly assigned to be immunized by intramuscular injection of blank plasmid pTCAE, plasmid pTureB and pThpaA (n=20 in each group). Titers of specific IgG antibody in serum of each group were detected through ELISA respectively on week 2, 4, 6 after immunization. Results Specific IgG were observed in pTureB and pThpaA immunized groups and titers of antibody increased as time prolonged. IgG level was significantly higher in pT-ureB immunized group than in pT-hpaA group on week 6 after immunization. Conclusion Plasmid pT-ureB possesses good immunogenicity and induces a higher immune response than pT-hpaA.
