通过克隆、表达海南原鸡程序性细胞死亡分子10(Programmed cell death10,PDCD10)基因,对其蛋白进行生物信息学分析。采用RT-PCR方法克隆得到海南原鸡PDCD10基因CDS区,将扩增产物与原核表达载体pET42a连接,构建pET42a-PDCD10重组质粒,经IPTG诱导表达后,进行SDS-PAGE和Western blot分析;运用生物信息学软件对所获得基因的核苷酸序列进行分析,并预测其编码蛋白的理化性质及二级结构等。克隆获得了PDCD10639bp的CDS区核苷酸序列,融合蛋白分子量约为57ku,生物信息学分析发现,PDCD10CDS区包括1个639bp的开放读码框,编码212个氨基酸。该蛋白不含信号肽,无跨膜区,二级结构中存在大量α-螺旋。研究结果为进一步开展海南原鸡PDCD10的功能研究奠定了坚实的基础。     

鸭瘟病毒UL51基因在感染宿主细胞中的定位和转录特征

对鸭瘟病毒(DPV)UL51基因在感染宿主细胞内的定位和转录时相进行分析,为进一步研究该基因的特性和功能提供有用的试验数据和材料。构建pET32a-UL51原核表达载体,将其转化至E.coliBL21(DE3)中进行IPTG诱导表达后,用Ni2+-NTA琼脂糖凝胶柱层析法纯化该表达产物。以纯化的重组蛋白为抗原免疫兔子,制备兔抗UL51多克隆抗血清,通过间接免疫荧光和RT-PCR法检测该基因在DPV感染的鸭胚成纤维细胞(DEF)内的定位和转录情况。间接免疫荧光结果显示,最早可在感染后8h的胞浆中检测到特异性荧光点,24～36h有大量绿色荧光团块聚集于近核区域,之后随着细胞病变的增强,胞浆中的绿色荧光开始减弱,且在感染晚期的胞核中也出现了少量弥散的绿色荧光。RT-PCR结果显示,DPVU L51基因从感染后4h开始转录,其后转录量不断增大,从6～48h一直保持在较高水平,之后又降低。DPVU L51蛋白主要定位于感染的宿主细胞的胞浆中特别是近核区域,与其在α-疱疹病毒中的同源物的定位结果一致;并且与其他几种α-疱疹病毒的转录情况对比后,可认为该基因是一个晚期(γ类)基因。     

Isolation and Identification of Group I Type 4 Avian Adenovirus and Analysis in Immune Effect of Fiber-2 Protein

The aim of this study was to identify pathogens, which caused pericardial effusion, hepatomegaly and bleeding at a chicken farm in Henan province, and furthermore to analyze effectiveness of immunogenic proteins of the pathogen. This study employed virus isolation, serological assays, PCR and sequencing analysis, animal experimentation, E. coli expression and protein purification, immunogenicity and challenge test and other methods. The results showed that virus was isolated in 7-day-old SPF chicken embryonated eggs, inoculated via the yolk sac route by two blind passages. Viral confirmation was carried out using PCR techniques, and showed a 900-bp-long fragment which shared a 100% homology with the Hexon gene of the serotype C4 strain. Serum neutralization results indicated that this isolate avian adenovirus was the group I type 4 avian adenovirus, named HN-ZK strain. The virus could induce CPE on primary hepatocytes of chicken embryo, and its titer was 10^7.5 TCID₅₀·0.1 mL^-1. Animal experimentation illustrated that the isolated virus caused 100% (10/10) typical symptoms and pathogenicity in 35-day-old SPF chickens. Furthermore, the DNA of the isolate virus was used as a template to express Fiber-2 fragment, with a molecular weight of 33 kDa by using the E. coli expression system, and the protein was concentrated and purified to 300 mg·mL^-1 after centrifugation and purification. SPF chickens were immunized with different doses of the purified Fiber-2 protein, and showed that a dose of 20 μg per chick was completely resistant to challenge of the virulent virus, suggesting the purified Fiber-2 protein has better immunogenicity. This study can provide data for diagnosing the hydropericardium hepatitis syndrome, and developing a genetic engineering subunit vaccine.

Evaluation of Joint Toxicity of Enrofloxacin and Three Antimicrobials on MRC-5 Cells

The aim of this study was to evaluate the combined toxicity of enrofloxacin with each of three antimicrobials (ciprofloxacin,florfenicol and sulfamethazine).MRC-5 cells were used as a cell model to simulate the damage of lung cells caused by mixed contamination of antimicrobials.Multiple concentration gradients and mixing ratios were set.CCK-8 method was used to determine the inhibition rate of cell growth caused by four antimicrobials and the inhibition rate of cell growth caused by enofloxacin mixed with three antimicrobials,respectively.Then Chou-Talalay method was used to fit the median effect plot and to calculate the combination index (CI) value.The results showed that the growth inhibition rates of MCR-5 cells caused by four single drugs went up in a step-like manner with the increase of drug concentration in the tested concentration range,among them,the growth inhibitory rate of MCR-5 cells by florfenicol was low (<4.5%).The combined toxicity of the three binary combinations showed a concentration-dependent and mixing-ratio dependence.Mixing enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin showed synergistic toxicity (CI<1) on MRC-5 cells at high and middle concentration groups,and antagonistic toxicity (CI>1) at the very-low-concentration groups.Mixing ciprofloxacin and florfenicol mainly showed an inhibited toxicity (CI>1).Binary combination enrofloxacin and sulfamethazine might present either a synergistic joint toxicity (CI<1) or an antagonistic joint toxicity (CI>1) as the concentration and mixing ratio changing.This study showed that it was necessary to assess the combined toxicity of antimicrobials in the toxicity evaluation of antimicrobials.Using Chou-Talalay method,the joint toxicity of multiple antimicrobials could be quickly and efficiently determined at cellular level.
