AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, due to the limitations of current technology, for example, in the current research methods for determining which site or sites of the antigen molecule the antibody in the sample is targeting, the method of chemically synthesizing polypeptides and cloning and expressing polypeptides is a relatively common method, but these The method often requires an overlapping step-by-step design for the full length of the protein, and the workload is relatively large, and often due to unreasonable step distances, some sites are missed or even no reactive sites can be found; proteolysis or cutting proteins and Combining fragment separation technology, mass spectrometry identification and other technologies to find and determine reactive sites is also a method for analyzing epitopes, but this method is often difficult to determine the specific cleavage scheme and find a suitable cleavage reagent after analyzing the composition of the protein itself. As a result, its application is limited. At present, there is no progress in using substantive methods to explain and verify the positive serum F1 antibody in natural populations.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for cutting Yersinia pestis F1 antigen and relative application thereof. The method for cutting Yersinia pestis F1 antigen comprises the steps of cutting F1 antigen to obtain more than two cut segments, and facilitating each of the at least two segments to include at least one complete linear epitope. The method can be further used for analyzing pestis F1 antibody masculine sample and F1 antigen linear epitope reaction condition; namely, the invention also provides a method for analysing F1 antibody masculine sample and F1 antigen linear epitope reactivity. Themethod comprises the steps of cutting the F1 antigen into more than two cut segments according to the method for cutting Yersinia pestis F1 antigen, and analysing immunity of the F1 antibody masculine sample using two cut segments with immune reactivity respectively; and if the F1 antibody masculine sample and the more than two cut segments have reactivity, locus cross reaction can be ruled out.

Description
