Embodiment 1

[0038] Embodiment 1, Staphylococcus aureus truncation SasA gene fragment obtains

[0039] According to the reported sequence of Staphylococcus Aureus MASA252 strain (GenBank: BX571856.1), after analyzing the full length of the protein encoded by the gene, design primers to amplify the 142-999bp fragment, and add NdeI and XhoI restriction enzymes to both ends of the tSasA sequence site, and the stop codon was removed, and a sequence encoding 6 histidines was introduced at the 3' end.

Embodiment 2

[0040]Example 2, Staphylococcus aureus truncated SasA expression vector construction

[0041] The amplified tSasA gene was digested with NdeI and XhoI, then ligated into the expression vector pET21a(+) that was also digested with NdeI and XhoI, transformed into Escherichia coli competent cells DH5α, and cultured overnight at 37°C. The next day, single clones were picked and placed in 5 mL LB (Amp+) medium, cultured at 37°C, 220 rpm for 12 hours, plasmids were extracted, NdeI and XhoI double enzymes were digested to identify the insertion of the target gene, and sent for sequencing. The correctly sequenced plasmid was named pET21a-tSasA.

Embodiment 3

[0042] Example 3. Escherichia coli expression and western-blot identification of Staphylococcus aureus truncated SasA

[0043] The pET21a(+) vector correctly connected to the tSasA gene was transformed into Escherichia coli competent cell BL21(DE3), and a single clone was picked and cultured in 5mL LB(Amp+) liquid medium at 37°C and 220rpm until OD600nm≌0.6, and then added IPTG with a final concentration of 1 mM was incubated at 28° C. and 220 rpm for 6 h. Collect the bacteria by centrifugation at 5,000g at 4°C, resuspend in PBS, and then sonicate the bacteria. The supernatant was collected by centrifugation at 12,000g at 4°C, and subjected to SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, and the expression of tSasA protein with a size of 40kDa was identified using the empty vector expression product as a control.

[0044] Western-blot analysis of the specific binding of tSasA protein and mouse anti-His tag monoclonal antibody. SDS-PAGE protein electrophoresis was performed on supernatants of u...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for high expression of a truncated SasA (Serine-rich adhesion forplatelets) protein of staphylococcus aureus in escherichia coli. According to a full length sequence (GenBank: BX571856.1) of a staphylococcus aureus SasA gene in a GenBank report, a primer is designed for amplifying the staphylococcus aureus SasA gene fragment 142-999bp, thus obtaining an amplified gene which has a sequence as SEQ ID No.1 and an encoded protein sequence as SEQ ID No.2. After double enzyme digestion, the SasA gene obtained from amplification is connected into the expression vector pET21a (+), and the recombined SasA protein can obtain a soluble high expression in escherichia coli, with the target protein accounting for about 20% of the total protein of a broken bacteria supernatant. After QFF column and nickel column purification, the purity of the target protein can be more than 85%. The recombined protein prepared by the method of the invention can have good immunogenicity, induce mice to generate an antibody of high titer, and resist mouse death caused by a lethal dose of staphylococcus aureus. The high expression method of the invention boasts wide application prospects in the large scale and high efficiency preparation of staphylococcus aureus recombined subunit vaccines.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, and in particular relates to a staphylococcus aureus SasA gene and its coded protein and its application as a subunit vaccine in the prevention of staphylococcus aureus infection. technical background: [0002] Staphylococcus aureus (Staphylococcus aureus) is an important Gram-positive conditional pathogenic bacteria. The most common infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus is local suppurative infection, which can also cause pneumonia, pseudomembranous colitis, endocardial Inflammation, etc., and even systemic infections such as sepsis and sepsis. Severe burns, patients requiring hemodialysis, premature infants, and other immunocompromised populations are susceptible to Staphylococcus aureus. A domestic study showed that 40% of those with burns larger than 30% developed sepsis caused by Staphylococcus aureus, 20% of them eventually developed multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, an...
