原核表达和制备EB病毒GST/BFRF3融合蛋白用于鼻咽癌的诊断筛查
Prokaryotic expression and preparation of GST/BFRF3 fusion protein of Epstein-Barr virus for screening nasopharyngeal carcinomas
摘要
Abstract
AIM:To construct a prokaryotic expression plasmid containing Epstein-Barr viral (EBV) capsidantigen BFRF3 gene and to observe the application of recombinant BFRF3 protein in the serological diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).METHODS:DNA extracted from the B95-8 cells was used as the templates.Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to generate a DNA fragment of BFRF3 gene,and a 531-bp DNA fragment was inserted into a PGEX-5X-1 vector.The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21 (DE3).The expression of GST/BFRF3 fusion protein was induced by IPTG,identified by both SDS-PAGE and Western blotting,and then purified by glutathionesepharose beads.The purified recombinant protein was coated to microplate for ELISA detection of EBV-IgA antibody in NPC patients.RESULTS:The GST/BFRF3 fusion protein was successfully expressed in E.coli.The molecular weight of the product was approximately 44 kD.The recombinant fusion protein GST/BFRF3 showed good immunoreactivity.A novel ELISA was established using GST/BFRF3 protein.Serum samples collected from the NPC patients and healthy controls were tested by this ELISA.The sensitivity and specificity of GST/BFRF3 tests for NPC patients were 65% and 87%,respectively.CONCLUSION:The recombinant protein GST/BFRF3 is expressed in E.coli,and it has diagnostic value for screening of NPC patients.关键词
