Abstract:

Based on the genomic sequence of the goat pox virus (GTPV), we have established a fluorescence quantitative PCR method targeting the G-protein-coupled chemokine receptor (GPCR) gene. Six pairs of specific qPCR primers were designed based on the whole genomic sequence of GTPV. The specificity and sensitivity of these six qPCR primers were screened and detected. A pair of qPCR primers with high specificity and sensitivity was finally screened and obtained. According to the GPCR gene sequence of the GTPV AV41 vaccine strain, we designed an ordinary PCR primer pair to amplify the GPCR gene to construct the eukaryotic expression vector, which was used to establish the standard curve. Results showed that A pair of specific qPCR primers targeting the GPCR gene was obtained. The eukaryotic expression plasmid named pCAGGS-GPCR was constructed. The standard curve of y=-3.5289x+49.07 was established, whose linear correlation coefficient is R2=0.997 2 and amplification efficiency is 92.7%. The results of the replication experiment suggested that the lowest detective limitation of this primer was 2.0 copies·μL-1, and the coefficient variation of the reproducibility results within and between batches was 2%, indicating the advantages of reasonable specificity, repeatability, and sensitivity. We have successfully established a specific fluorescence quantitative PCR method targeting the GPCR gene of GTPV, which provides adequate detecting support for the veterinary clinical diagnosis and the prevention and control of goat poxvirus.
