Expression, Purification of E.coli NrfA Protein and Preparation of Polyclonal Antibody Against NrfA

Objective] This study aimed to clone the E.coli NrfA gene and construct the pET-28a(+)-NrfA prokaryotic expression vector for preparation of polyclonal antibody against E.coli NrfA.Method] E.coli NrfA gene was cloned from the E.coli genome DNA by PCR and inserted into the vector pET-28a(+)to construct prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a(+)-NrfA.E.coli NrfA protein was expressed by IPTG induction and purified.Polyclonal antibody against NrfA protein was prepared by immunizing rabbit with routine method.The specificity and titer of polyclonal antibody were confirmed by ELISA and Western Blotting.Result] The constructed prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a(+)-NrfA was induced by IPTG,the recombinant NrfA protein could be expressed effectively.The titer of rabbit anti-NrfA polyclonal antibody obtained after immunization and purification was about 1∶ 204 900.Western Blotting analysis indicated that the obtained polyclonal antibody against E.coli NrfA protein had high titer and high specificity.Conclusion] E.coli NrfA gene was cloned and the prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a(+)-NrfA was constructed successfully,and the polyclonal antibody with high titer and high specificity was prepared,which had laid the foundation for the study of NrfA in different strains of bacteria.
