Embodiment 1

[0035] Example 1: Selection of Candidate Antigen Epitopes

[0036] The applicant searched the HCV sequences database (http: / / hepatitis.ibcp.fr.), analyzed a total of 1700 HVR1 sequences of 6 genotypes of HCV, and screened out 6 sequences according to the homology of amino acid sequences. HVR1 antigen sequences belonging to 6 genotypes of HCV. Wherein, the amino acid sequences of the first hypervariable region (HVR1) antigens of the six hepatitis C virus HCV1-HCV6 genotypes are as follows:

[0037] ①STYATGGAAGRETSTWAGLFNPGAAQK

[0038] ②TTYTTAGSAARATYTLTSLFKTGPKQK

[0039] ③ETHVTGGTAAHGALGITSLLSRGPKQN

Embodiment 2

[0043] Example 2: Cloning and expression of multitype HVR1 fusion antigen, that is, the first hypervariable region fusion antigen of hepatitis C virus

[0044] 1. Construction of multitype HVR1 fusion antigen expression plasmid

[0045] 1.1 Synthesis of multitype HVR1 fusion antigen and gene sequence synthesis of multitype HVR1 fusion antigen

[0046] According to the amino acid sequences of the 6 HVR1 antigens belonging to the 6 genotypes of HCV described in Example 1, Shanghai Jierui Bioengineering Co., Ltd. was entrusted to synthesize the HVR1 polypeptides of each genotype.

[0047] Utilize gene recombination method, add flexible short peptide (GGGGS or GGGGSGGGGSGGGGS or AAY, preferably GGGGSGGGGSGGGGS) to the HVR1 antigen amino acid sequence that belongs to 6 genotypes of HCV 6 described in Example 1 and make it link together (its amino acid sequence is as SEQ ID No.1), using Escherichia coli preferred codons, translated the amino acid sequence into nucleotide sequence, ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a hepatitis C virus HVR1 (Hypervariable Region 1) fusion antigen. An amino acid sequence of the fusion antigen is shown as SEQ ID No.1. The invention also discloses application of the fusion antigen in preparation of a hepatitis C virus HVR1 antibody detection kit. The experiment proves that the cross reactivity of the fusion antigen is obviously improved compared with that of a single segment HVR1 antigen, and the detection coincidence rate of hepatitis C virus RNA positive patients is 99 percent. Because the HVR1 is a main neutralizing antigen epitope in the hepatitis C virus, the antigen can be used for achieving an aim of comprehensively detecting HCV infection for hepatitis C virus HVR1 antibody detection and effectively solving the problems such as outcome and prognosis of HCV diseases and prediction of interferon curative effect and has extremely great clinical application prospects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hepatitis C virus antigen, in particular to a fusion antigen of the first hypervariable region (HVR1) of the hepatitis C virus and its application in the preparation of a detection kit for the hepatitis C virus HVR1 antibody. Background technique [0002] The most notable clinical feature of hepatitis C virus (hepatitis C virus, HCV) infection is that it causes chronic infection. About 70% of hepatitis C may develop into chronic hepatitis, 20% into liver cirrhosis, and 12% into liver cancer, which is very harmful. seriously. There are about 170 million people in the world carrying HCV, and it is estimated that there are 43 million HCV-infected people in my country, and the number of new cases is rising every year, and the infection rate is about 3.2%. [0003] Since the HCV gene was cloned in 1989, people have been working on vaccine research, but because the viral RNA is low in blood and very unstable, the HCV genome mutati...
