Development of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using recombinant protein antigen for the diagnosis of Chikungunya virus.

We describe here the development of in-house enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for diagnostic Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection using a recombinant protein of CHIKV. Recombinant protein gene was designed based on 154 sequences and we used computational methods to predict the structure and antigenic potential.


 For the prediction of confirmation, the Monkey Recombinant Proteins gene coding for a recombinant protein CHIKV (rCHIKVp) has been synthesized and expressed in a prokaryotic system. Subsequently, the protein was purified by affinity chromatography and used as an antigen in an indirect ELISA. We present data on production optimization and preparation of the recombinant antigen ELISA to detect IgG against CHIKV in human sera.

Development of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for viral infections in horses latex using recombinant E2 protein as an antigen.


Gum virus causes fever, skin eruptions, and limb edema in horses. For high-throughput and time-saving method for serodiagnosis, we explored Other Recombinant Proteins the immunogenic viral antigen sap, and establish an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using recombinant proteins. Western blot analysis using serum from infected horses show a strong reaction with the viral antigen of about 46 kDa in accordance with E1 or E2 glycoproteins.

 Recombinant E2 (RE2) proteins reacted more strongly with sera infected horses than re1 protein in both Western blotting and ELISA. In ELISA using protein Re2 (RE2-ELISA), for all horses experimentally infected with the virus latex (n = 7), the optical density (OD) exceeds the cutoff value at 14 days post-infection. BPO in five of the nine horses vaccinated also slightly exceeded the cutoff value after vaccination.

 Among the naturally infected horses (n = 28), 24 seronegative in acute sera, which turned out to be seropositive in sera recovered. During four seropositive horses in acute sera, serial dilution method endpoint with paired sera detect ≥4-fold increase in titer. In conclusion, we established RE2-ELISA can detect antibodies to the virus after infection experimental latex horse and nature; This should be useful in the diagnosis and surveillance of viral infections sap.

Recombinant Lactococcus Lactis Expressing M1-HA2 Fusion Protein Provides Protective Mucosal Immunity Against H9N2 Avian Influenza Virus in Chickens.

H9N2 subtype avian influenza virus of low pathogenicity (LPAIV) are distributed worldwide and cause enormous economic losses in the poultry industry. Although almost all the chickens immunized with the inactivated vaccine, the disease is still widespread. We speculate that increase mucosal or cellular immune response may contribute to improving the H9N2 virus surveillance.  In this study, we Bovine Recombinant Proteins  constructed a novel Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis) strain expressing a recombinant fusion protein consisting of the M1 and HA2 proteins derived from the H9N2 viral strain endemic conserved antigens. M1-HA2 fusion protein was cloned downstream of the gene encoding the secretory peptide, and we subsequently confirmed that the fusion protein is secreted from L.  lactis by Western blotting. We assess the immunogenicity and protective effects of recombinant L. lactis this tension. Eight chicken 1-day-old were divided into four groups, and the experimental grou...

Expression and serological application of recombinant epitope-repeat protein carrying an immunodominant epitope of Newcastle disease virus nucleoprotein.

The purpose of this study was to develop serodiagnostic test for differentiation of infected from vaccinated animals strategy (DIVA) which accompanies a marker vaccine less immunodominant epitope (IDE) from the nucleoprotein of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) .Recombinant epitope-repeat protein (rERP) genes that encode eight IDE sequence repeats (ETQFLDLMRAVANSMR) by tetra-glycine linker was synthesized.  Recombinant baculovirus carrying the gene Canine Recombinant Proteins  for expressing rERP rERP produced in insect cells. Specificity and sensitivity enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay indirect (ELISA) employing rERP is evaluated The rERP with a molecular weight of 20 kDa successfully expressed by recombinant baculovirus in an insect-baculovirus system. The rERP is functional antigen as shown by Western blotting. ELISA indirectly employs rERP developed and specificity and sensitivity is determined. ELISA test allows discrimination of NDV-infected sera from vaccinated deletion v...

Simultaneous Administration of Recombinant Measles Viruses Expressing Respiratory Syncytial Virus Fusion (F) and Nucleo (N) Proteins Induced Humoral and Cellular Immune Responses in Cotton Rats.

We previously reported that measles virus expressing recombinant respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion protein (F), MVAIK / RSV / F, induced neutralizing antibodies against RSV, and they express RSV-NP (MVAIK / RSV / NP) and M2-1 ( MVAIK / RSV / M2-1) RSV-specific induced CD8⁺ / cell IFN-γ⁺, but no neutralizing antibodies. In this study, MVAIK / RSV / F and MVAIK / RSV / NP simultaneously given to the cotton rat and Viral Recombinant Proteins  immune responses and protective effects compared to MVAIK / RSV / F only. sufficient neutralizing antibodies against RSV and RSV-specific CD8⁺ / IFN-γ⁺ cells were observed after re-immunization with simultaneous administration.  After the RSV challenge, CD8⁺ / IFN-γ⁺ increased in spleen cells obtained from immunization groups simultaneously in response to F and NP peptide. amount to more than CD8⁺ / IFN-γ⁺ and CD4⁺ / IFN-γ⁺ cells were detected in the lung tissue of simultaneous immunization group after RSV challenge. There is no RSV ...
