Expression of Aminopeptidase N1 （APN1）, the Main Receptor Protein for Bacillus thuringiensis CrylA Toxin from Helicoverpa armigera Larval Midgut in Trichoplusia ni cells

The aim of this article is to successfully express the Bt （Bacillus thuringiensis） toxin receptor protein located on the internal membrane of larval midgut of cotton bollworm （Helicoverpa armigera Hübner） within eukaryotic expression system, which is one of the key links for clarifying the relationship between receptor and Bt resistance. The fragments of aminopeptidase N1 （APN1） gene without signal peptide in the susceptible and the resistant H. armigera were cloned separately using PCR method, and were separately cloned into pUC 19 vector. After sequencing the gene, the fragments encoding for APN1 without signal peptide were cloned into the Bac-to-Bac baculovirus expression system with transfer vector pFastBacHTB under the polyhedron gene promoter. The recombinant transposing plasmid pFastBacHTB/APN1 was screened and then transformed into Escherichia coli DH10Bac. It was cultured in LB medium, which contained Te, Kan, Ge, X-gal, and IPTG. The resulting recombinant bacmid was transfected into cells of the insect Trichoplusia ni and recombinant baculoviruse was obtained. The lysate of cells infected with recombinant baculoviruse was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and blot analysis. The results showed that the recombinant baculoviruse was fully capable of expressing APN1. The APN1 gene successfully expressed in T. ni cell established the base for continuing the research on its function and relationshio of resistance with Bt.

In order to produce recombinant avian adeno-associated virus (rAAAV) oviduct-specific expressing human lysozyme (hLYZ) by the baculovirus expression system, one pair of primers was designed according to the published sequences for hLYZ, the hLYZ gene was amplified by PCR and cloned into baculovirus expression vector, which contained the oviduct-specific expression cassette and the inverted terminal repeats of avian adeno-associated virus (AAAV), the resulted plasmid was named as pFB-AIOVLYZ.Then the recombinant vector pFB-AIOVLYZ was transformed into E.coli DH10Bac, and the positive recombinant bacmid rBacmid-AIOVLYZ was screened according to the resistant and the blue-white plague screening,rBacmid-AIOVLYZ was transfected into the Sf9 insect cells by liposome. Once the cytopathic effect was found, the rBac-AIOVLYZ could be harvested.Sf9 insect cells cultured in suspension culture were infected with three recombinant baculoviruses, rBac-AIOVLYZ, rBac-VP and rBac-Rep, at an MOI of 5. 72 h later, Sf9 insect cells were collected, and recombinant viral particles rAAAV-OVLYZ were purified by filtration, chloroform extraction and PEG precipitation.

These results indicated that the rAAAV oviduct-specific expressing hLYZ was successfully prepared by baculovirus expression system, which laid the foundation for the preparation of hLYZ.
