Embodiment 1

[0026] Expression and purification of embodiment 1 rSjGALE recombinant protein

[0027] The coding sequence (SEQ ID NO: 2) of Schistosoma japonicum UDP-glucose-4-epimerase gene (SjGALE) was inserted into the polyclonal restriction site of prokaryotic expression vector pET28a(+) to construct pET28a-SjGALE recombinant Expression vector, after the recombinant expression vector is identified correctly by sequencing, the following expression and purification steps are carried out.

[0028] 1. Prokaryotic expression of recombinant proteins

[0029] 1) Take a single clone colony containing the recombinant plasmid and inoculate it in LB culture medium containing the corresponding antibiotic, and cultivate overnight at 37°C with shaking.

[0030] 2) Culture with shaking at 37°C until OD600 reaches 0.4-0.6, and add IPTG to a final concentration of 1 mM to induce expression.

[0031] 3) Collect the bacterial fluids before and after induction respectively, and analyze and verify by SDS-...

Embodiment 2

[0041] The immunogenicity detection of embodiment 2 recombinant protein

[0042] 1) Run SDS-PAGE electrophoresis on the expressed and purified recombinant protein.

[0043] 2) Cut the nitrocellulose membrane and six-layer filter paper of the same size as the glue block, and put the nitrocellulose membrane and filter paper into the buffer solution for soaking; place three layers of filter paper, gel, nitrocellulose membrane, Three layers of filter paper; fill the tank with transfer buffer and ice pack, 280mA, transfer for 2h;

[0044] 3) After the electrophoretic transfer, put the transferred nitrocellulose membrane into 3% bovine serum albumin and block overnight at 4°C;

[0045] 4) Discard the blocking solution, wash three times with TBST, each time for 10 minutes;

[0046] 5) Add 1:200 diluted anti-Schistosoma japonicum adult soluble antigen antibody (preserved in the laboratory) as the primary antibody, and incubate at room temperature for 1 hour;

[0047] 6) Wash three ...

Embodiment 3

[0052] Embodiment 3 Immunoprotective experiment

[0053] 1. Animal immunization experiments

[0054] 1) BalB / C mice were randomly divided into 2 groups, 10 in each group.

[0055] 2) The immune protection test was carried out with the recombinant protein rSjGALE of the partial amino acid sequence of Schistosoma japonicum SjGALE (SEQ ID NO: 1), and an adjuvant control group was set at the same time.

[0056] 3) In the experiment, each mouse was injected with a mixture of 50 μg of recombinant protein and an equal volume of Freund's complete / incomplete adjuvant, and the adjuvant control group was injected with a mixture of PBS and adjuvant.

[0057] Immunization was performed once every two weeks, three times in total, blood was collected from orbital veins before and two weeks after each immunization, and serum was separated and stored at -20°C.

[0058] 4) Two weeks after the third immunization, the abdominal skin patch of 30 cercariae per mouse was used to challenge the infect...

Abstract

The invention discloses a Japanese blood fluke protein which has immunogenicity and contains an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1. The invention also discloses an application of the Japanese blood fluke protein in preparation of vaccines for preventing or treating schistosomiasis. The Japanese blood fluke protein disclosed by the invention has a good immune prevention effect on schistosomiasis, and can be prepared into new vaccines for resisting schistosomiasis.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bioengineering, in particular to a Schistosoma japonicum protein and its application. Background technique [0002] Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease that can infect both humans and animals. At different stages of schistosomiasis development, cercariae, juveniles, adults and eggs can cause different damages and complex immunopathological responses to the host. The epidemic range is wide. It can cause serious harm to both humans and domestic animals. At present, drugs, such as praziquantel, are mainly used to treat people or animals already infected with schistosomiasis, but this cannot solve the problem of reinfection. In order to prevent and control schistosomiasis more effectively, a more feasible measure is to use a combination of vaccine and drug treatment. Therefore, searching for new vaccine candidate antigens is still one of the focuses of current schistosomiasis vaccine research. [0003] ...
