[0099] 1. Co-transfection:

[0100] The two plasmids were mixed in equal volumes for a total of 10 ul, and 10 ul of the plasmid was added to a tube containing 200 ul of competent cells, gently swirled several times to mix the contents, and placed in ice for 30 minutes. Place the tube in a circulating water bath pre-warmed to 42 °C for 90 s without shaking. Quickly remove the tube to an ice bath and allow the cells to cool for 2 min. Add 200ul of non-resistant LB medium. Incubate with shaking at 37°C for 1 hour. Then spread on plates containing chloramphenicol and KANAmycin. Leave the plate at room temperature until the liquid has absorbed. Invert the plate and incubate at 37°C for 16 hours. As a result, colony growth was visible in the culture medium, which was in line with the expected results.

Abstract

The invention relates to a double-plasmid expression system capable of producing a virus-like particle packing large-fragment RNA, which belongs to the field of biotechnology. The double-plasmid expression system capable of expressing the virus-like particle containing large-fragment RNA consists of a plasmid PET-MC and a plasmid pACYC-X, wherein the PET-MC is constructed by integrating pET-28(b) with mature enzyme protein of phage MS2 and capsid protein cDNA, and the pACYC-X is constructed by integrating a 19mer packing site of the phage MS2 and the cDNA of target RNA. The invention has the advantage that the virus-like particle expressed by the double-plasmid expression system contains long-fragment RNA. Different target fragments to be amplified by virus are constructed together to form a chimera which is packed into the virus-like particle, thus the virus-like particle can be taken as a multi-target nucleic acid standard and a quality control material applicable to simultaneous detection of a plurality of viruses for the same specimen so as to save cost and simplify operation procedures.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a dual-plasmid expression system capable of producing and packaging large-segment RNA virus-like particles, and belongs to the field of biotechnology. Background technique [0002] RNA viruses such as hepatitis C virus (Hepatitis C virus, HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (human immunodeficiency virus, HIV), severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, SARS-CoV), highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 and others are a class of pathogens that can cause serious human diseases. Viral RNA detection is an essential means for the early diagnosis of infection and the dynamic observation of the efficacy of antiviral treatment. Since the early 1990s, people have gradually adopted molecular diagnostic assays (Molecular diagnostic assays) to detect viral RNAs. This type of technology is sensitive and specific, making it the main detection method, or even the only detection method, f...
