Problems solved by technology

However, the small molecular weight SARS-CoV-2RBD (~21KDa) has the disadvantages of poor immunogenicity, inability to induce cytotoxic T lymphocyte response, short duration of the induced immune response, and the need for multiple vaccinations, so it is not suitable to be prepared as a vaccine alone

Embodiment 1

[0032] Example 1: Preparation, identification and content determination of fusion protein RBD-mFc

[0033] According to NCBI (https: / / www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) the gene sequence (amino acid sequence such as SEQ ID No. 1), and the gene sequence of the Fc protein in mouse immunoglobulin IgG (the amino acid sequence is shown in SEQ ID No.2), and the fusion protein was prepared by genetic engineering.

[0034] (1) Cloning construction and identification of COVID-19 antigenic protein RBD and mFc fusion protein

[0035]Fully synthesize the nucleotide sequence of RBD-mFc (the nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID No.4, the amino acid sequence is shown in SEQ ID No.3), and introduce specific BamHI and XhoI restriction enzyme cutting sites, the mammalian cell expression vector PCDNA3.1 and RBD-mFc gene, double digestion with BamHI and XhoI at the same time, after digestion, perform 10g / L agarose gel electrophoresis, and pass through the gel Recovery and purification kit to purify the di...

Embodiment 2

[0042] Embodiment 2: the preparation of subunit vaccine

[0043] (1) Dilute the RBD-mFc fusion protein prepared in Example 1 with PBS buffered saline solution, and mix thoroughly to obtain the vaccine RBD-mFc with a recombinant fusion protein content of 10 μg / mL.

[0044] (2) Dilute the RBD-mFc fusion protein prepared in Example 1 with PBS buffered saline solution, and add aluminum adjuvant to mix thoroughly to obtain a vaccine composition RBD-mFc / Al;

[0045] (3) Dilute the RBD-mFc fusion protein prepared in Example 1 with PBS buffered saline solution, add complete Freund's adjuvant, stir to make it a white emulsion, and obtain a recombinant fusion protein with a content of 10 μg / mL. Vaccine composition complete Freund's adjuvant RBD-mFc / FA (RBD-mFc / CFA); use PBS buffered saline solution to dilute the RBD-mFc fusion protein prepared in Example 1, add incomplete Freund's adjuvant, stir Make it into a white emulsion, that is, obtain a vaccine composition incomplete Freund's ...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to a fusion protein of SARS-CoV-2, and a vaccine composition of the fusion protein. The fusion protein and the prepared vaccine composition containing the fusion protein overcome the defects of poor immunogenicity and the like of subunit vaccines, can induce the specific immune response aiming at SARS-CoV-2, and achieve the purposes of inhibiting the replication of SARS-CoV-2, inhibiting the spread of SARS-CoV-2 or preventing the settlement of SARS-CoV-2 common strains and variant strains in SARS-CoV-2 host bodies. The fusion protein and the vaccine composition containing the fusion protein can effectively prevent and/or treat novel coronavirus pneumonia (Corona Virus Disease 2019, COVID-19). The fusion protein can be recombined and expressed in large quantities by the aid of the genetic engineering technology, the consumed time is short, and the large-scale production can be facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a fusion protein of SARS-CoV-2 and a vaccine composition thereof. Background technique [0002] Novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a viral infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2, SARS-CoV-2) in humans. Common signs after a person is infected with coronavirus include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath, and dyspnea; severe cases can lead to pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure, and even death. This emerging infectious disease is spreading rapidly around the world. As of April 2020, with more than 3 million cases and more than 200,000 deaths worldwide, COVID-19 has become a serious public health problem. Although SARS-CoV-2 seriously endangers human health, there is currently no specific drug for the treatment and prevention of COVID-...
