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 virus epitopes sera.The preliminary results represent rERP ELISA as a promising diagnostic tool DIVA.

Serological Detection of Citrus tristeza virus with Antibodies Developed with Recombinant Coat Protein.


Specific antibodies to recombinant coat protein (RCP) of the p25 gene Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) was developed in goats and rabbits and subsequently evaluated as a complete kit for the detection of viruses using healthy tissue and CTV-infected. The combination of goat T1 is used as a primer (coating) and C3 as an intermediary rabbit antibody (detecting) RCP react efficiently, with an optical density at 405 nm (OD405) values ​​between 0.250 and 2.000 with a sample from an international collection of diverse isolates of CTV.

CTV isolates tested cause a wide spectrum of disease syndromes in citrus different hosts. OD405 values ​​for healthy tissue that is less than 0,100. Likewise, the combination of goat T1 and rabbit C3 antibody RCP provide consistent results for CTV-positive and -negative samples discrimination when directly compared to Central California Tristeza http://bmp-5.com/ Eradication Agency (CCTEA) antibody used for the large-scale detection of CTV and CTV commercially available serological detection kit.

The combination of goat T1 and rabbit antibodies RCP C3 indicate suitability for large-scale indexing with samples collected in commercial orchard as part of a regular monitoring program this CCTEA. Evaluation included a sample of 301 41 195 commercial orchard of districts 1, 2, and 3. In total, 26 trees (0.063%) were found to be positive for a combination antibody CTV T1 / C3 RCP. 

The results of this study provide evidence that the RCP antibody can be used efficiently for both capture and detection of CTV antigen in two antibody sandwich indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

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.

Optimization of recombinant Zika virus NS1 protein secretion from HEK293 cells.

Sensitive, accurate and cost-effective diagnostic tests are needed to detect the Zika virus (ZIKV) infection. Nonstructural 1 (NS1) glycoprotein is an excellent diagnostic marker because it was released in a hexameric conformation of the infected cells into the bloodstream of patients in the early course of infection.  We established a stable system Fungal Recombinant Proteins  of his rZNS1-expression in HEK293 cells through lentiviral transduction. New optimization approach to improve his rZNS1 secretion of proteins in mammalian expression systems is achieved through incubation of 50 nM rapamycin followed by incubation in serum-free media for 9 days, attaining the protein from ~ 10 mg / l of culture medium.  His rZNS1 purified hexamer recognized by anti-NS1 antibodies in serum ZIKV patients, and demonstrated the ability to induce a humoral response in mice immunized. recombinant proteins obtained are reliable biological tool that can potentially be applied in the development of diagn

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 group orally vacci
