摘要: 在表达鸡致病性大肠杆菌菌毛fimC基因的基础上,对fimC蛋白卵黄抗体的免疫保护效力进行测定。对鸡致病性大肠杆菌O2血清型菌株fimC基因序列进行扩增,扩增产物克隆至pMD18-T载体并测序。测序结果显示,fimC基因全长657 bp,编码218个氨基酸,与人源大肠杆菌fimC基因进行同源性比较,核苷酸序列同源性达97.9%,氨基酸序同源性为96%。从重组质粒pMD18-T-fimC上将fimC基因亚克隆到表达载体质粒pET-30c上,转化大肠杆菌BL21(DE3),表达出预期的25 ku融合蛋白,采用Western Blot对表达产物进行反应原性分析,结果显示fimC融合蛋白具有较好的抗原反应特异性。用表达的fimC蛋白免疫产蛋母鸡,制备fimC高免卵黄抗体。用制备的fimC高免卵黄抗体免疫1日龄健康雏鸡,1 d后注射鸡致病性大肠杆菌进行攻毒,结果显示,fimC卵黄抗体免疫组死亡率为40%,对照组分别为60%、70%, 证明所制备的fimC蛋白卵黄抗体能在一定程度上抵抗鸡致病性大肠杆菌的攻击。

Abstract: This experiment was conducted to determine immunity protection effectiveness of fimC protein from Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli(APEC) after fimC protein was expressed. fimC gene was amplified from APEC O2, and then was cloned into pMD18-T vector and sequenced. The results showed that fimC gene was 657 bp and encoded 218 amino acids. The sequence of fimC gene was analyzed by homology comparing with that of human, they shared 97.9% homology in nucleotide and 96% in amino acid. The fimC gene was sub-cloned from pMD18-T vector into the plasmid vector pET-30c to construct a recombinant expression plasmid pET-30c-fimC, which was transformed into E. coli BL21. Then a fusion protein about 25 kDa was expressed by inducing with IPTG, and the expressed protien was proved to be antigenic by Western Blot analysis. The laying hens were immunized with the expressed fimC protein to prepare high yolk antibodies of fimC. One-day-old healthy chickens were immunized with the yolk antibodies of fimC, and injected with APEC next day, results showed that the mortality of immunized group and the control group was 60% and 70% respectively. The results indicated that fimC yolk antibodies could provide protection to some extent against the attacks of APEC.
