Problems solved by technology

In addition, other bacterial infections may also produce false positive reactions, resulting in the low sensitivity and specificity of the current commercial tuberculosis antibody detection kits. At present, the sensitivity of any single antigen for tuberculosis serological diagnosis has not exceeded 70%, no exact antigen or set of antigens can be recognized by all or most patients

preparation example Construction

[0032] The preparation method of the above-mentioned fusion protein Rv0057-Rv1352 comprises:

[0033] (1) Design of the fusion of two protein epitopes: After analyzing the gene sequence and protein structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0057 and Rv1352, determine the fusion region, combination and sequence of the two protein epitopes; The antigenic epitopes are connected to form a fusion protein; the antigenic epitope of the Rv0057 protein is located at the amino terminal of the fusion protein, and the antigenic epitope of the Rv1352 protein is located at the shuttle base of the fusion protein. It consists of the key epitopes of two protein antigens, Rv0057 and Rv1352, connected sequentially, called Rv0057-Rv1352;

[0034] (2) Cloning of fusion of two proteins: Cloning by genetic engineering technology.

Embodiment 2

[0188] The Rv0057-Rv1352 fusion protein constructed and purified in Example 1 of the present invention was applied to the serological diagnosis of tuberculosis. It is used as the diagnostic antigen of chemiluminescence immunoassay and applied to the test of clinical specimens, and a good diagnostic effect is obtained. Compared with the three currently commercialized tuberculosis antibody detection kits, it significantly improves the sensitivity of tuberculosis diagnosis. The ELISA detection procedure is as follows:

[0189] 1. Experimental specimens: A total of 103 serum specimens were selected and divided into two groups:

[0190] (1) Tuberculosis group: 54 patients with active tuberculosis diagnosed clinically by imaging, laboratory examination and anti-tuberculosis treatment, including 35 males and 19 females, with an average age of 43.1±18.8 years. Including tuberculosis, tuberculous pleurisy, tuberculous pericarditis, tuberculous meningitis, urinary tuberculosis, etc. ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a novel mycobacterium tuberculosis specific fusion protein as well as preparation and application thereof and belongs to the technical field of tuberculosis medical immunologic diagnosis. The fusion protein is formed by sequentially connecting antigenic epitopes of two proteins Rv0057 and Rv1352, wherein the nucleotide sequence of the antigenic epitope of the protein Rv0057 is shown in a sequence 1 in a sequence table; and the nucleotide sequence of the antigenic epitope of the protein Rv1352 is shown in a sequence 2 in a sequence table. Compared with the current commercial antibody detection kit, the mycobacterium tuberculosis specific fusion protein disclosed by the invention has the advantages of high sensitivity, strong specificity and complementarity with other antigens in the aspect of tuberculosis serodiagnosis, and can be used for detecting specific anti-tuberculosis antibodies in body fluid samples such as blood serum and pleural effusion.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific fusion protein and its preparation and application, in particular to a novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific fusion protein Rv0057-Rv1352 and its multi-antigen epitope prepared by genetic engineering technology. The preparation method belongs to the technical field of tuberculosis medical immunology detection. Background technique [0002] Tuberculosis is still one of the major infectious diseases that endanger human health in the world. Since 1985, the prevalence of AIDS, tuberculosis-infected immigrants and some people living in poverty have caused the incidence of tuberculosis to rise in the United States and other developed countries in Europe and the United States, especially tuberculosis. Bacterial drug resistance and co-infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) make the treatment of tuberculosis even worse. At present, there are about 20 million tuberculosi...
