Problems solved by technology

Recently, a recombinant outer membrane protein has been used as a serological detection method for leptospirosis. However, due to the complex antigen structure and numerous serotypes of Leptospira, the conventional serological method based on multiple antiserum is not conducive to the disease. early rapid detection of

Embodiment 1

[0030] Example 1. Screening of T cell and B cell dominant antigenic determinants

[0031] HLA-DR binding peptide prediction tool ProPred (http: / / www.imtech.res.in / raghava / propred / ) and EMBOSS software package (http: / / bioinfo.hku.hk / EMBOSS / ) were used to predict the hook Major T- and B-cell epitopes of the telospiral outer membrane proteins OmpL1, LipL21, and LipL32. The predicted epitope fragment was amplified by PCR method and then inserted into phage M13KE to display on the surface of PIII protein. The phage protein was purified and each epitope was identified for screening.

Embodiment 2

[0032] Example 2. Containing the construction of multi-epitope peptide vector

[0033] According to the codon preference of the expression system, the epitope segment tandem gene 1mp was artificially synthesized, in which the epitopes were connected by flexible peptide segments, and the two ends of the synthetic gene contained BamHI, BglII and EcoRI sites respectively. The synthetic gene was inserted into the pUC57 vector to construct the p-lmp vector. After the sequencing was correct, the 1mp gene was isolated by digestion with BamHI and EcoRI, and inserted into the p-1mp vector digested with BglII and EcoRI to construct the p-21mp vector. Bits are repeated twice in the vector. The 21mp fragment was separated by restriction digestion with BamHI and EcoRI and inserted into the expression vector pET28a to construct the expression vector pET28a-21mp. The pET28a-21mp recombinant plasmid can produce two bands of about 5300bp and 600bp after digestion with BamHI and EcoRI, which i...

Embodiment 3

[0036] Example 3. Induced expression of engineering bacteria pET28a-21mp / BL21

[0037] Transfer pET28a-21mp into Escherichia coli expression strain BL21(DE3) to express the target protein. Specifically, pick a single clone of pET28a-21mp and inoculate it into 3ml of LB medium, culture overnight at 37°C with shaking at 220rpm; re-inoculate the cultured bacterial solution into 3ml of LB medium at a ratio of 1:100, at 37°C, Shake culture at 220rpm for 3 hours, add IPTG with a final concentration of 1mM, induce for 4 hours at 37°C and 220rpm, collect the bacterial pellet by centrifugation; resuspend the pellet in 1×PBS buffer, perform ultrasonic disruption, centrifuge at 4°C, and take The supernatant and precipitate were analyzed by SDS-PAGE, and a specific expression band appeared at about 22kD, which was consistent with the expected molecular weight, and the target protein mainly existed in soluble form. ( figure 2 ).

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for carrying out leptospira infectious detection through recombined multi-epitope peptide protein. A superior T cell epitope and a superior cell B epitope of major outer membrane proteins of OmpL1, LipL21 and LipL32 of leptospira are in serial connection, are subcloned to an expression vector and are converted into colibacillus so as to construct engineering bacteria; through high-level expression by IPTG inducement; expression bacteria is subjected to ultrasonic cracking and supernatant purification and is coated with a microporous plate to construct a ELISA reagent kit for antibody detection; similarly, a colloidal gold detection reagent paper strip is constructed on the purified recombining antigen sample application NC membrane. A detection antigen is IgG or IgM of serum of a coupler body patient. The method can be used for detecting the infection of the leptospira which can cause diseases in human being and other animals, which comprises the infection of the leptospira with significance of theriatrics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical immunoassay, and in particular relates to a method for detecting Leptospira infection by using recombinant multi-epitope peptide protein. Background of the invention [0002] Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Leptospira bacterium infection: it is transmitted to humans through contact with domestic or wild animal hosts or an environment contaminated by their urine. Leptospira consist of 8 pathogenic genetically distinct types and 4 nonpathogenic saprophytic species. Leptospira are also classified by serotype, and more than 230 pathogenic serovars have been identified so far. [0003] Leptospirosis is widespread throughout the world. The disease is considered the most prevalent zoonotic disease due to the wide range of animal species that serve as its hosts. The early features of the disease are fever, chills, headache, and severe muscle pain. It is often misdiagnosed because the symp...
