Problems solved by technology

However, in the prior art, the virulence gene knockout vaccine of classical swine fever virus still has the following problems: ① Different strains have different effects of deleting the same gene, and if the deletion is not sufficient, there will be residual virulence and pathogenicity, and multiple gene deletions cause The low titer of the virus will also reduce the risk of immunogenicity or protective effect of the attenuated strain; ②Whether the knockout virulence gene reduces virus transmission and detoxification is an important indicator of biosafety, and it is best to obtain an immune clearance vaccine Candidate strains to reduce the risk of detoxification and detoxification; ③Although the whole genome sequencing of African swine fever has been completed, there are more than 160 regulatory genes and structural genes that make up the African swine fever virus. Although the functions of all genes are studied It is a huge project, but a comprehensive study of the function of each regulatory gene and structural gene is crucial for its pathogenic mechanism and vaccine development

[0072] Example 1 Construction, purification and identification of recombinant virus Δ181 / UK

[0073] 1. CRISPR / Cas9 vector construction

[0074] (1) Optimization of pX330 vector: Since African swine fever virus mainly replicates in the cytoplasmic virus factory, pX330 was first optimized when constructing the pCRISPR / Cas9 vector; the nucleus at both ends of the Cas9 enzyme was removed by ClonExpress II one-step cloning method. Localization Signal (NLS), named pX330ΔN.

[0075] (2) MGF360-18R gene, DP71L gene and DP96R gene are adjacent genes, design targeting gRNAs for DP71L and DP96R genes, their oligonucleotide names and sequences are: 181 / UK-gRNA-L:GCTCCTCCACGCTCGCGATCCGG( SEQ ID NO. 8); 181 / UK-gRNA-R: TTACAGGAAGAATAATGG GGAGG (SEQ ID NO. 9).

[0085] Example 2 Determination of virus titer

[0086] The titer of African swine fever virus is expressed by half the hemocytosis (50% haemadsorption, HAD50). For the specific operation of the HAD50 experiment, see the literature (Borca MV, Ramirez-Medina E, Silva E, Vuono E, Rai A, Pruitt S, Holinka LG, Velazquez-Salinas L, Zhu J, Gladue DP. Development of a highly effective Afri can swine fever virus vaccine by deletion of the I177Lgene results in sterile immunity aga inst the current epidemic Eurasiastrain. JVirol.2020.pii:JVI.02017-19) , while making appropriate adjustments: in a 96-well plate by about 1x10 5 Inoculate primary PAM cells per well of cells, serially dilute the recombinant virus to be tested by 10-fold gradient, a total of 7 dilutions, 8 wells at each dilution, add 100 μL / well of the diluted virus to PAM in a 96-well plate, and then add For red blood cells, a total of three replicates were performed. Virus infection can be judged according to the garland f...

[0087] Example 3 Toxicity evaluation of gene deletion strain Δ181 / UK

[0088] In order to detect the virulence of the gene deletion strain Δ181 / UK, this experiment used 10 4 HAD 50 Doses were administered intramuscularly to assess virulence in pigs.

[0089] In this experiment, 13 healthy landrace piglets negative for African swine fever antigen and antibody were used and divided into 3 groups. Among them, 5 were challenged with parental strain A SFV CN / GS / 2018 isolate and 5 in gene deletion strain Δ181 / UK group. The three experimental pigs were the cohabitation controls of the Δ181 / UK inoculated group. The changes in body temperature were measured every day after the inoculation, and peripheral blood and saliva were collected.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of bioengineering, and particularly relates to a gene-deleted attenuated African swine fever virus strain capable of being used as a vaccine and a construction method of the gene-deleted attenuated African swine fever virus strain. The virus strain is a gene-deleted attenuated strain of a parent African swine fever virus (ASFV) CN / GS / 2018 isolated strain. The invention finds that the DP71L gene is a new target gene for attenuating swine pathogenicity, and finds that the functions of coding proteins of the MGF360-18R gene, the DP71L gene and the DP96R gene are jointly lost, so that the toxicity of a parent strain is reduced, and a high-safety attenuated African swine fever candidate vaccine strain is obtained; after pigs are immunized by the attenuated African swine fever candidate vaccine strain with high dose (104HAD50), the attenuated African swine fever candidate vaccine strain is completely attenuated, the immunized pigs are healthy and free from diseases, nucleic acid of pigs living together with the immunized pigs is negative and is not spread horizontally, and the attenuated African swine fever candidate vaccine strain has relatively good safety; 100% immune protection can be provided for attacking the ASFV CN / GS / 2018 virulent strain, and the vaccine can be used as a candidate vaccine for safely and effectively preventing and controlling the African swine fever epidemic situation and has great social value.
