Embodiment 1

[0045] Example 1: Obtaining of flagellin mutants

[0046] 1. Design and construction of the target gene

[0047] The full-length Flagellin sequence refers to the original sequence (WP_050188722), which was synthesized by Beijing Qingke Biotechnology, and its nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO.1. Different truncations were performed on the full-length Flagellin. The truncated Fm-C6 replaced the 178-320 amino acids in the variable region of the full-length Flagellin with the flexible Linker sequence GSGPGG, and retained the backbone sequence for activating the TLR5 pathway. Its amino acid sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO.2 shown. The truncated Fm protein replaces the 178-320 amino acids in the variable region of the full-length Flagellin with the flexible Linker sequence GSGPGG, retains the backbone sequence for activating the TLR5 pathway, and deletes the 6 amino acids VLSLLR at the carboxy-terminal. Its nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID As shown in NO.3, the amino ...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and discloses a flagellin mutant and application thereof in preparation of African swine fever antigen fusion protein. The amino acid sequence of the flagellin mutant is as shown in SEQ ID NO. 4. The flagellin truncated mutant Fm provided by the invention can realize efficient supernatant expression, the protein yield after shake-flask culture and purification per liter can reach 40mg, the flagellin truncated mutant Fm is easy to amplify and produce on a large scale, and the wide application of the flagellin protein can be improved. After the flagellin adjuvant is fused with African swine fever antigen protein, while the activity of the flagellin adjuvant is maintained, the solubility and expression level of a recombinant antigen are improved, and the cost of expression and purification processes is greatly reduced.
