Embodiment 1

[0018] Example 1 Preparation of Toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 antigen polypeptide

[0019] 1. Design and synthesis of Toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 polypeptide: The Toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 protein sequence was obtained according to the Toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 sequence on GenBank (accession number: EPT25031.1), which contains 816 amino acids.

[0020] 2. The characteristics of TgVP1 protein were analyzed by DNAstar software. The analysis results are shown in Table 1. The protein has a molecular weight of 85296 Daltons and an isoelectric point of 4.83, which is an acidic protein.

[0025] Example 2 Preparation of TgVP1 Antigen Polypeptide and Coupling with Carrier Protein

[0026] 1. Peptide synthesis

[0027] TgVP1 antigen polypeptide: YTKAADVGADLSGKNEYGMSEDDPRNPAC was synthesized by Shanghai Gil Biochemical Company. The C-terminus of the polypeptide is a cysteine, which is convenient for coupling with the carrier protein.

[0028] 2. Coupling of peptides and carrier proteins

[0029] a. Dilute one tube of maleimide-activated mcKLH with 200 μL ultrapure water to a 10 mg / mL solution. (Note: The above solution is blue-white and translucent, do not shake or heat, otherwise it will cause mcKLH to precipitate.)

[0030] b. Dissolving the thiol-containing hapten (ie TgVP1 antigenic polypeptide) with a coupling buffer equivalent to 1.0-2.5 times the volume of the solution in step a. For example: Dissolve 2 mg of hapten in 200-500 μL of coupling buffer and add to mcKLH. If the polypeptide is readily soluble, it can be added to the mcKLH suspension as a sol...

[0042] Example 3 Preparation and Purification of Anti-TgVP1 Polypeptide Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

[0043] 1. Animal immunization

[0044] The coupling product was used to immunize two New Zealand male rabbits, weighing 2-2.5kg. Freund's complete adjuvant or Freund's incomplete adjuvant was purchased from Sigma.

[0045] The immunization procedure is shown in Table 2. Dilute 100 μg of antigen with PBS to 1.25 mL, mix with an equal volume of adjuvant, vortex for 100 minutes, and check the emulsification result. Take a drop of antigen and drop it on water, and it will not dissolve and spread for one minute. Blood was taken from the ear vein before immunization, and serum was collected after standing at 4°C, and stored at -80°C as negative control serum.

Abstract

The invention discloses a toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 extracellular region antigen polypeptide, an anti-toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 polyclonal antibody and the application of the polyclonal antibody. The amino acid sequence of the toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 extracellular region antigen polypeptide is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. A New Zealand rabbit is immunized by the toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 extracellular region antigen polypeptide as an immunogen so that the anti-toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 polyclonal antibody can be obtained; an identification result indicates that the polyclonal antibody is capable of specifically identifying the toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 protein and can be applied to the detection of the toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 protein in tests such as ELISA, Western blot and immunofluorescence; a powerful tool is provided for the fundamental research of the protein functions and the research of the protein as a potential anti-toxoplasma gondii drug target; in short, the polyclonal antibody is wide in application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of genetic engineering, in particular to a TgVP1 intracellular region antigen polypeptide, a polyclonal antibody against toxoplasma gondii TgVP1 and applications thereof. Background technique [0002] V-H+-PPase is a unique proton pump that exists in many animals and plants. It can hydrolyze the phosphate anhydride bond of inorganic pyrophosphate, and use the released energy to transport protons, generate an electrochemical gradient across the membrane, and play a role similar to the proton pump ATPase. V-H+-Ppase can efficiently convert stored energy into H+ and / or transfer membrane gradients for a variety of different intracellular transport processes. V-PPases were first found in plants and photosynthetic bacteria, and recent studies have shown that trypanosoma, Leishmania, Toxoplasma gondii, and Plasmodium falciparum also have this enzyme. It is worth noting that this enzyme does not exist in the animal hosts of...
