Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a recombinant chimeric protein, in particular to a recombinant chimeric protein carrying a rotavirus epitope and its preparation, belonging to the field of medical biotechnology. Background technique
[0002] Rotavirus (RV) is the main pathogen of infantile diarrhea. There are more than 600,000 RV infection deaths worldwide each year, 80% of which occur in developing countries. RV belongs to Reoviridae ( Reoviridae ), rotavirus ( Rotaviruses ). The RV genome consists of 11 fragments of double-stranded RNA, encoding 6 structural proteins (VP1-VP4, VP6 and VP7) and 6 non-structural proteins (NSP1-NSP5 / NSP6), respectively.
[0003] According to the different antigenicity of the antigenic protein VP6 of the RV group (subgroup), the rotavirus RV discovered so far can be divided into seven groups A to G, and group A is the main pathogen of infantile diarrhea. The 12 proteins (genes) of group A rotavirus RV can be divided into d...
