BmNPV多角体蛋白片段引导外源蛋白固定入多角体的研究

家蚕核型多角体病毒(BmNPV)晚期产生大量多角体,其主要作用是包埋病毒粒子免受外部恶劣环境的影响,为次代感染提供保障。将BmNPV多角体基因分段克隆并与报告基因——增强型绿色荧光蛋白(EGFP)基因融合,利用BmNPVPolh+Bac-to-Bac表达系统构建重组病毒,使多角体蛋白与融合蛋白在BmN细胞内共表达。分析感染细胞和形成的多角体中融合蛋白的含量,研究不同的多角体蛋白片段引导EGFP固定入多角体的效果,结果表明构建的5种重组病毒都能大量表达融合蛋白,每种多角体蛋白片段都能引导EGFP固定入多角体内部,且外源融合蛋白在多角体总蛋白中占有较高的比例,其中,以多角体蛋白N末端100个氨基酸和完整多角体蛋白序列作为信号固定EGFP的效率最高。这一现象为解决活性蛋白长期保存提供了新思路,同时对于开发含有毒素蛋白的新型生物杀虫剂和新型疫苗的转运载体也具有较好的参考价值。

棉铃虫核型多角体病毒感染对宿主昆虫GST活性及其表达水平的影响

【目的】研究棉铃虫核型多角体病毒(HearNPV)感染宿主昆虫后对宿主谷胱甘肽S-转移酶(GST)活性与基因表达水平的影响,明确病毒在侵染宿主过程中对宿主昆虫GST的调控作用。【方法】采用50和100PIB/只2种剂量的HearNPV病毒感染3龄棉铃虫,测定感染后不同时间试虫中肠GST活性与其编码基因的表达水平,对比分析病毒感染与未感染健康试虫的GST活性及其编码基因表达水平的差异。【结果】棉铃虫在HearNPV感染初期,GST活性显著提高,同时GST表达水平显著上调;随着感染时间的推移,GST活性与其编码基因的表达水平均显著下降,表明病毒感染后对宿主昆虫GST活性的影响与其对GST表达水平的调控相关。【结论】HearNPV感染棉铃虫过程中,病毒入侵能够激活宿主GST基因的表达,但病毒的持续感染最终会抑制GST编码基因的表达水平。     

表达短lef-1dsRNA转基因家蚕对BmNPV的抵抗能力与主要经济性状

为了提高家蚕对核型多角体病毒(BmNPV)的抵抗能力,将带有BmNPV晚期表达因子基因(lef-1)dsRNA表达盒和新霉素抗性基因(neo)表达盒的转基因载体pigA3-LEF-Neo通过精子介导法导入家蚕卵,经G418和GFP双重筛选并结合分子生物学鉴定,证实获得了转基因家蚕。对G6代转基因家蚕2龄幼虫接种BmNPV,结果显示转基因家蚕的死亡率比正常家蚕(对照组)下降了10～30个百分点,表明转基因家蚕对BmNPV的抗性有所提高;对接种BmNPV的5龄转基因家蚕A、B系统的定量PCR检测结果显示,2个系统体内的lef-1 mRNA转录水平比对照组平均降低了72倍和26.5倍,最高下降了104倍,进一步表明表达lef-1 dsRNA的转基因家蚕抑制了BmNPV lef-1基因的表达。转基因家蚕的饲养成绩显示其全茧量、茧层量和茧层率等主要经济性状与正常家蚕无明显差异。     

The impact of co-infection by a nucleopolyhedrovirus and the endoparasitoid Microplitis pallidipes Szepligeti on the protective enzymes in hemolymph of Spodoptera exigua

We determined the effects of parasitism by Microplitis pallidipes and/or nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) infection on protective enzymes in the hemolymph of Spodoptera exigua larvae. We found that concentrations of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) were constantly higher within the five observation days after treatment in parasitized/virus-infected than healthy (control) larvae. In parasitized + infected larvae, enzyme levels reduced from day 1 compared to parasitized larvae. Compared to enzyme levels in virus-infected larvae, in parasitized + infected larvae, CAT concentrations were generally lower, while SOD concentrations were significantly lower in the first two days and POD concentrations were lower in the first two days, but higher in following three days. We concluded that joint and separate parasitism and NPV infection promoted the activities of protective enzymes. Our findings also revealed that NPV infection inhibited the activities of protective enzymes induced by parasitism of M. pallidipes and that the parasitism inhibited the CAT activity induced by NPV infection.

Persistence of naturally occurring and genetically modified Choristoneura fumiferana nucleopolyhedroviruses in outdoor aquatic microcosms

BACKGROUND: To assess the persistence of genetically modified and naturally occurring baculoviruses in an aquatic environment, replicate (three) outdoor, aquatic microcosms were spiked with spruce budworm viruses [Ireland strain of Choristoneura fumiferana multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (CfMNPV) and the recombinant CfMNPVegt(-)/lacZ(+)] at a rate of 1.86 x 10(10) occlusion bodies (OBs) m(-2) of surface area. The presence of virus in water samples collected at various times after inoculation was determined by PCR amplification of baculoviral DNA extracted from OBs.RESULTS: Although UV radiation rapidly degrades baculoviruses under natural conditions, both viruses persisted above the level of detection (>100 OBs 450 microL(-1) of natural pond water) for at least 1 year post-inoculation, with little difference between the viruses in their patterns of persistence.CONCLUSION: The present microcosm study suggests that occlusion bodies of baculoviruses can persist in the flocculent layer of natural ponds. On disturbance, OBs could re-enter the main water column and thus be available for transport to new locations. Implications for environmental risk assessment are discussed.
