Problems solved by technology

However, in previous studies, fusion proteins with various tags (such as His.Tag, GST.Tag, S.Tag, etc.) were often constructed for the convenience of purification methods in the later stage, but the fusion protein was not considered. Whether the label will affect the animal experiment and further

Embodiment 1

[0047] 1. Construction of recombinant plasmids

[0048] The purified PCR products Mtb8.4 and Hspx and plasmid PET30a were digested with restriction endonucleases Nde I and Sac I respectively, and the digested Mtb8.4T and Hspx gene fragments and plasmid PET30a DNA fragments were passed through T4 DNA ligase After connecting overnight at 16°C, transform into Escherichia coli strain DH5α, spread on LB plates containing 50 mg / mL kanamycin, culture overnight at 37°C, pick positive clones, extract plasmids, and perform PCR and sequencing Identification. The recombinant plasmids PET30a-Mtb8.4 and PET30a-Hspx extracted and sequenced correctly were digested with restriction endonucleases Sac I and HindIII respectively, and Hspx and Mtb8.4 were digested with Sac I and HindIII respectively. After gel recovery and purification, the target gene fragments were ligated with the recovered products of PET30a-Mtb8.4 and PET30a-Hspx vectors under the action of T4 DNA ligase at 16°C overnight to...

Abstract

The invention discloses a tubercle bacillus fusion protein Mtb8.4-HspX, which is a protein shown as sequence 2 in a sequence table. The invention has the advantages that: the selected tubercle bacillus Mtb8.4 is a low molecular therapeutic protein antigen purified and separated from tubercle bacillus culture filtrate, has higher cell immunocompetence, and can induce immunoreactions of CD4+Th1 cells and generation of specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) and secrete high-level interferon(IFN)-gamma; and HspX is a heat shock protein with the relative molecular mass of 16,000 and is a main protein generated by the tubercle bacillus in a stationary growth period or a low oxygen state. Specific humoral immune and cellular immune response to the HspX in bodies of tuberculosis patients and latent infected ones prove that the HspX is an important target antigen for organism immunoreaction in a latent tubercle bacillus infection period.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein Mtb8.4-HspX and its preparation method, as well as its application in the preparation of candidate vaccines against tuberculosis. Background technique [0002] Tuberculosis is one of the serious diseases that endanger human health for a long time. Nearly 1 / 3 of the people in the world are still infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. About 5% of tuberculosis infected patients will develop tuberculosis patients within 2-5 years; the rest may form latent tuberculosis infections. my country is one of the countries with a high burden of tuberculosis, and about 130,000 people die of tuberculosis every year. At present, BCG vaccination is an important measure to effectively prevent tuberculosis. However, different studies have shown that the protective effect of BCG in different populations is not stable, especially the protective efficiency of adult pulmonary tuberculosis ranges from ...
