Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the fields of molecular biology and biomedicine, and specifically to an infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus, a construction method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD) is a highly acute, contact-transmitted avian infectious disease caused by infection with the infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV). VP3 protein is the main inner shell protein of IBDV. Studies have found that phosphorylation modification of VP3 protein plays an important regulatory role in its function. For example, studies have shown that IBDV infection induces upregulation of Cdc7 expression, which subsequently causes phosphorylation of Serine 13 (S13) residues on the VP3 protein, a modification that is essential for the effective replication of the virus in host cells. The significance of studying VP3 phosphorylation modification is also to provide potential antiviral targets, which may effectively inhibit the replication of IBDV by interfering with the VP3 phosphorylation pathway. For example, the development of inhibitors targeting specific phosphorylation sites of VP3 may block the effective replication of the virus and reduce the pathogenicity of the virus, thereby providing new ideas for the development of drugs against IBDV infection. At present, in the study of the effect of VP3 protein phosphorylation modification on the replication of infectious bursal disease virus, there are problems such as unclear VP3 phosphorylation sites and lack of effective research tools. Summary of the invention

[0005] The infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus provided in the first aspect of the present application can be used as a powerful tool for studying the phosphorylation mechanism of infectious bursal disease virus VP3, because the rescue vector carries a mutant plasmid in which the serine at position 130 of the VP3 protein is mutated to alanine and / or the serine at position 163 is mutated to alanine, thereby providing a basis for studying infectious bursal disease virus vaccines.

[0006] In a second aspect, the present application provides an infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus, in which the serine at position 130 of the VP3 protein is mutated to alanine and / or the serine at position 163 is mutated to alanine.

[0007] The second aspect of the present application provides an infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus, which has a VP3 protein phosphorylation site deletion in the infectious bursal disease virus plasmid due to the mutation of serine at position 130 of the VP3 protein to alanine and serine at position 163 of the VP3 protein to alanine, thereby providing a strategy for subsequent studies on the effect of VP3 protein phosphorylation modification on the replication of infectious bursal disease virus.

[0008] In a third aspect, the present application provides a method for constructing an infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus, comprising the following steps: Step S20, mutating the serine at position 130 of the VP3 protein to alanine and / or mutating the serine at position 163 to alanine to obtain a mutant plasmid; Step S30: transfect the mutant plasmid into the rescue vector using a first transfection reagent to obtain an infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus.

[0010] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides an application of the infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus or the infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus prepared by the construction method described above in the preparation of vaccines, drugs and diagnostic reagents.

[0011] It is precisely because the infectious bursal disease virus VP3 phosphorylation-deficient virus in this application has undergone dual phosphorylation site mutations at S130 and S163, which leads to enhanced IBDV virus replication ability, enhanced dsRNA binding ability, and enhanced auxiliary polymerase activity, that it can be used as an IBDV candidate vaccine strain.

Take out the mixture and quickly place it on ice for 5 min. Add 1 mL of LB medium without antibiotics to the mixture and place it on a shaking shaker at 37℃ for 45 min. Centrifuge the mixture in the centrifuge tube at low speed (3000 r / min) for 10 min. Centrifuge all the competent cells to the bottom of the tube. Discard the upper LB medium and keep about 100 μL. Use a pipette to resuspend the competent cells at the bottom of the tube and add them to the prepared ampicillin solid LB medium plate. Let it stand for 10 min. Place the plate upside down in a 37℃ incubator overnight. Pick a single colony for shaking culture and send it to General Biotech Co., Ltd. for first-generation sequencing. Sequencing uses CMV-F primer forward detection.

[0058] 6) Plasmid extraction: Sequencing alignment was performed on the sequencing results returned by the sequencing company. The correct clones were those that matched the VP3 template sequence. The plasmid was extracted using the bacterial solution of the correct clones to obtain the recombinant plasmid. The specific steps were as follows: (A) Pipette 100 μL of the original bacteria into a 100 mL sterilized conical flask, and add 20 mL of ampicillin liquid LB medium to the conical flask for overnight culture. (B) Take 10 mL of the bacterial solution and transfer it to a 15 mL centrifuge tube. Centrifuge at 1000 r / min at room temperature for 5 min to centrifuge all the bacterial solution to the bottom of the tube, and discard the supernatant waste liquid.

(J) Centrifuge the adsorption column at 12000 r / min at high speed for 1 min at room temperature to elute the recombinant plasmids (Flag-VP3 and Myc-VP3) on the adsorption column. After measuring the concentration, store it at -20°C for later use.

[0059] <Mass spectrometry identification of potential phosphorylation sites of VP3 protein> 1) Transfection: Use Exfect transfection reagent to transfect the recombinant plasmid into HEK-293T cells. Specific operation steps are as follows: (A) HEK-293T cells are cultured in a six-well cell culture plate. When the density grows to about 80%, transfection can be performed. (B) Set up the experimental group and the control group, prepare two sterile EP tubes, add 100 μL of serum-free DMEM medium to each, add 10 μL of Exfect transfection reagent to the two A tubes and mix gently, add 2μg of Flag-VP3 plasmid to the B tube of the control group, add 2μg of Flag-VP3 plasmid and Flag-MARK1 plasmid to the B tube of the experimental group and mix gently, and let it stand for 5 min. (C) Add 10 μL of Exfect transfection reagent in one A tube to the B tube of the experimental group and mix evenly, and add 10 μL of Exfect transfection reagent in another A tube to the B tube of the control group and mix evenly, and let it stand for 15 min. (D) The mixed solution in tube B of the experimental group and the mixed solution in tube B of the control group were added dropwise into a 6-well plate and gently shaken. After 6 hours, the culture medium was changed to DMEM medium containing 2% serum and cultured for a further 48 hours to obtain transfected cells.

[0060] 2) Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP): The transfected experimental group cells and culture medium, and the control group cells and culture medium were collected into different EP tubes, centrifuged at 3000r / min for 5min, and the supernatant was discarded and 200 μL NP-40 lysis buffer was added, mixed by pipetting, placed on lysis ice for 10 min, and centrifuged at 12000r / min for 10 min. The supernatant was taken, 5 μL anti-Flag agarose was added, mixed gently, placed on a shaker at 4℃ for 3 h, centrifuged at 1000r / min for 3 min at 4℃, and the supernatant was discarded. NP-40 lysis buffer was added to wash the agarose, and the washing was repeated 3 times. An appropriate amount of NP-40 lysis buffer and protein loading buffer were added, and the sample was boiled at 95℃ for 10 min to obtain the target protein of the experimental group and the target protein of the control group, respectively.

[0061] 3) SDS-PAGE and Coomassie Brilliant Blue Staining: (A) Prepare polyacrylamide gel, including 8% separation gel and 5% stacking gel, the formula is shown in Table 1 below: Table 1 Name of each component 5% concentrated gel 8% separation gel <![CDATA[H2O]]> 1.21 mL 2.6 mL 40% Acrylamide 250 μL 1 mL Tris8.8 0 μL 1.25 Tris6.8 0.5 mL 0 μL 10% SDS 20 μL 50 μL 10%APS 20 μL 50 μL TEMED 2 μL 2 μL Prepare the lower-layer gel according to the above formula. First, pour the lower-layer separating gel well, add isopropanol to the upper layer for pressure line, let it stand at room temperature until the lower-layer gel solidifies, then discard the upper-layer isopropanol and wash it three times with double-distilled water. Prepare the upper-layer stacking gel and pour it. Quickly insert the sample comb, let it stand at room temperature for 1 h until the upper-layer gel solidifies, then gently take out the comb for the subsequent sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDA-PAGE) experiment; (B) Loading: Add 2 μL of protein prestained marker to the first lane; add the control group (Flag-VP3) sample to the second lane; add the experimental group (Flag-VP3 + Flag-MARK1) sample to the third lane. (C) Electrophoresis: The electrophoresis equipment uses a Bio-Rad mini vertical electrophoresis system. First, perform electrophoresis at a low voltage (80 V) for about 30 min. After the bromophenol blue enters the separating gel, increase the voltage to 120 V and continue electrophoresis until the bromophenol blue indicator reaches the bottom of the glass plate to stop electrophoresis. (D) Staining: After electrophoresis, disassemble the gel plate, cut off the excess part of the gel, put the main part into the Coomassie brilliant blue staining solution, and stain it on a shaker for 2 h. (E) Decolorization: Discard the staining solution, add an appropriate amount of protein decolorizing solution, decolorize it on a shaker, and change the decolorizing solution every 30 min until the blue color is completely removed. As Figure 2A shown, compared with the control group, the p-VP3 band (between 35 kDa and 40 kDa) in the experimental group is more obvious.

[0062] 4) Mass spectrometry identification: Cut the VP3 band together with the p-VP3 (VP3 phosphorylation) band and send it to Nanjing Kangxuhe Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for mass spectrometry identification. The whole set of systems used for identification is the timsTOF Pro2 mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics) of the UltiMate 3000 system (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, USA) in tandem. The mass spectrometer operates in the DDAPASEF mode, and the mass spectrometry parameters are set as follows: Do 10 PASEF scans per cycle, with an accumulation time of 100 ms. The scanning range is from 100 to 1700 m / z, and the ion mobility (1 / K0) range is set to 0.6 - 1.6. The scanning charge number is set to 0 - 5, the target value is set to 10,000, and the dynamic exclusion time is 0.4 min. When m / z < 700, the isolation window width is set to 2 Th, and when m / z > 700, the isolation window width is set to 3 Th. The results Figure 2B and Figure 2C shown, the mass spectrometry results show that the S130A site and the S163A site have obvious mass spectrometry effects, and the information of the VP3 phosphorylation modification sites can be basically determined as the S130A site and the S163A site.

[0071] <Verification of the Phosphorylation Modification Site of VP3 by Immunoblotting (Western Blot)> 1) Transfection: Use Exfect transfection reagent to transfect the mutant plasmid (obtained in the above plasmid extraction) and Myc-VP3 plasmid into HEK-293T cells respectively. Specific operation steps are as follows: (A) HEK-293T cells are cultured in a 12-well cell culture plate. When the density grows to about 80%, transfection can be performed. (B) Prepare two sterile EP tubes for each group, add 50 μL serum-free DMEM medium, add 4 μL Exfect transfection reagent to tube A and mix gently, add 2μg of the corresponding mutant plasmid to tube B and mix gently, and let it stand for 5 min. (C) Add the mixed solution in tube A to tube B and mix gently, and let it stand for 15 min. (D) Add the mixed solution dropwise into the 12-well plate, shake gently, and change to DMEM medium containing 2% serum after 6 hours and continue to culture for 24 hours.

[0072] 2) Preparation of protein samples: Collect the culture medium and cells into EP tubes, collect the cells by low-speed centrifugation, discard the supernatant, add 100 μL NP-40 lysis buffer, lyse at 4 degrees for 20 min, centrifuge at high speed for 10 min, discard the precipitate and retain the supernatant, add 25 μL 5× protein loading buffer, mix thoroughly and boil in a 100°C metal bath for 10 min, and temporarily store the prepared protein sample in a 4°C refrigerator for subsequent Western blot detection to obtain the mutant VP3 protein. Similarly, prepare the control group WT-VP3 protein sample.

[0073] 3) Western blot detection: (A) Sample loading: Add 2 μL of protein prestained Marker to the first well, add the WT-VP3 protein sample to the second well, and then add the protein samples of different mutants (T92A, T92E, S105A, S105E, S130A, S130E, S163A, S163E, Y150A, Y150E, S253A, S253E) VP3 in sequence. (B) Electrophoresis: The electrophoresis equipment uses the Bio-Rad mini vertical electrophoresis system. First, perform electrophoresis at a low voltage (80 V) for about 30 min. After the bromophenol blue enters the separation gel, increase the voltage to 120 V and continue electrophoresis until the bromophenol blue indicator reaches the bottom of the glass plate to stop electrophoresis. (C) Blotting: After electrophoresis, cut off and remove the excess part of the gel, and soak the remaining gel in the transfer buffer. Prepare two thick transfer filter papers and a nitrocellulose membrane (NC membrane) that is close to the size of the membrane. Soak the NC membrane and the transfer filter papers in the transfer buffer for several minutes to fully moisten them. Stack the filter paper - NC membrane - gel - filter paper from bottom to top, place them neatly on the semi-dry blotting apparatus, gently press to remove the internal air, cover the lid of the blotting apparatus, limit the voltage to 25 V, keep the current constant at 0.2 mA, and transfer for 35 min. After the transfer is completed, take out the NC membrane. (D) Blocking: Soak the transferred NC membrane in the PBS buffer containing 5% skim milk, let it stand at room temperature for 20 min, and then wash it 3 - 5 times with the PBS buffer, 5 - 10 min each time. (E) Key step in primary antibody incubation: Detect the target protein by the binding of the mouse monoclonal antibody against Myc protein and β-actin antibody in the primary antibody reagent to the specific antigen: Dilute the mouse monoclonal antibody against Myc protein according to the instructions at a ratio of 1:3000 with the primary antibody diluent, and incubate the transferred NC membrane in it, shake and incubate overnight on a shaker at 4°C. (F) Secondary antibody incubation: The next day, wash the NC membrane 3 - 5 times with PBST by shaking, 5 min each time. Dilute the goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody at a ratio of 1:10000, incubate at room temperature by shaking for 1 h, and then wash it 3 - 5 times with PBST by shaking, 5 min each time. (G) Protein imaging and preservation: As Figure 3 shown, it can be seen that the phosphorylation levels of S130A and S163A are significantly decreased or absent compared with WT, while mutations at other sites have little effect, that is, other sites can be excluded, and two sites, S130 and S163, are locked as the VP3 phosphorylation sites; as Figure 4 shown, it can be seen that the phosphorylation levels of S130A, S163A and the SSAA double mutant samples are significantly decreased or absent compared with WT.

[0082] 6) Transfection (with IBDV VP3S130A For example): Use Exfect transfection reagent to transfect T7-A VP3S130AThe two plasmids, T7-A and T7-B, were transfected into BSRT7 cells. The specific operation steps are as follows: (A) BSRT7 cells were cultured in a 12-well cell culture plate. When the cell density reached about 80%, transfection could be carried out. (B) Prepare two sterile EP tubes and add 50 μL of serum-free DMEM medium to each. Add 4 μL of Exfect transfection reagent to tube A and mix gently.

(D) Drop the mixed solution into the 12-well plate respectively, shake gently. After 6 h, change to DMEM medium containing 2% serum and continue culturing.

[0083] 7) Subtransfer and blind passage: After 72 h, collect the medium and cells into an EP tube, freeze-thaw once and then centrifuge. Transfer the supernatant to DF-1 cells. After 2 h, discard the supernatant and change to MEM medium containing 2% serum. Repeat the above steps after 72 h and transfer to DF-1 cells again. When characteristic lesions are observed, the rescue is successful.

[0084] Example 2 Effect of VP3 phosphorylation modification-deficient recombinant virus on IBDV replication <Virus titer determination> 1) Virus inoculation: DF-1 cells were cultured in a 96-well cell culture plate. After being confluent, virus inoculation could be carried out. Dilute the virus solution in 2% MEM medium at ratios of 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, 10-5, 10-6, 10-7, 10-8, 10-9, 10-10, 10-11, 10-12. The diluted virus-containing medium was used to culture DF-1 cells. Each group had 6 replicates and 3 parallel experiments were done. 2) Calculate the virus titer: After 72 h, observe the cytopathic effect, count the number of diseased wells, and calculate the TCID50.

[0085] <Western blot detection> 1) Virus inoculation: Inoculate with the virus amount of 1 MOI. Determine the inoculation amount according to the TCID50 of different viruses. After the DF-1 cells in the 12-well plate are confluent, inoculate at different time points. The inoculation times are 6 h, 12 h, and 18 h respectively. 2) Sample collection: Collect the medium and cells into an EP tube, centrifuge at low speed to collect the cells, discard the supernatant, add 60 μL of NP-40 lysis buffer, lyse at 4 °C for 20 min, then centrifuge at high speed for 10 min, discard the precipitate and retain the supernatant. Add 15 μL of 5× protein loading buffer, mix well and boil in a 100 °C metal bath for 10 min. The prepared protein samples are temporarily stored in a 4 °C refrigerator for subsequent WB detection. 3) Western blot identification: As Figure 5A shown, Western blot detection was performed according to the above method. The color development results showed that the viral protein bands of SSAA IBDV were thicker than those of WT IBDV at different virus inoculation times, indicating that the dephosphorylation modification of VP3 promoted the replication of IBDV.

[0086] <TCID50 Detection> 1) Virus inoculation: Inoculate with a virus amount of 0.1 MOI. Determine the inoculation amount according to the TCID50 of different viruses. After the DF-1 cells in the 12-well plate are confluent, inoculate at different time points. The inoculation times are 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h respectively; 2) Sample collection: Collect the culture medium and cells into an EP tube, freeze-thaw once, centrifuge at 12000 r / min for 10 min, and transfer the supernatant to a new EP tube; 3) TCID50 determination: Culture DF-1 cells in a 96-well cell culture plate. After the cells are confluent, dilute the virus solution obtained in the previous step at ratios of 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, 10-5, 10-6, 10-7, 10-8, 10-9, 10-10, 10-11, 10-12 in 2% MEM medium. The diluted medium containing the virus is used to culture DF-1 cells. Observe the cytopathic effect 72 h later, count the number of diseased wells, with 6 replicates in each group, perform 3 parallel experiments, finally summarize the data, and calculate the TCID50. As Figure 5B shown, the TCID50 values of SSAA IBDV were higher than those of WT IBDV at different time points, indicating that the dephosphorylation modification of VP3 promoted the replication of IBDV.

[0087] Example 3 Effect of Recombinant Virus with Deletion of VP3 Phosphorylation Modification on Its Ability to Bind dsRNA and Ability to Assist Polymerase Activity <Enhanced Ability of Recombinant Virus with Deletion of VP3 Phosphorylation Modification to Bind dsRNA> First, purify IBDV dsRNA. Transfect Myc-VP3 and Myc-VP3SSAA plasmids into 293T cells. After 36 h, co-incubate dsRNA with NP-40 lysis buffer, and perform IP detection of the VP3-dsRNA interaction with a dsRNA antibody. As Figure 6 shown, it can be seen that the amount of VP3SSAA binding dsRNA increased significantly.

[0088] <Enhanced Ability of Recombinant Virus with Deletion of VP3 Phosphorylation Modification to Assist Polymerase Activity> First, the VP3SSAA polymerase activity detection plasmid was constructed and co-transfected into 293T cells. After 72 h, protein samples were collected and the expression of VP1 / VP2 / VP3 proteins was detected by Western blot. Figure 7 As shown, it can be seen that the expression of viral protein in the VP3SSAA group was significantly increased.

[0089] In summary, the present invention discloses a method for constructing a virus lacking the phosphorylation sites of the infectious bursal disease virus VP3 protein, uses immunoprecipitation technology to separate and purify the IBDV VP3 protein, and uses mass spectrometry to identify the VP3 phosphorylation sites as serine at position 130 and serine at position 163. The codon at position 130 is mutated from AGC to GCC, and the corresponding serine is mutated to alanine. At the same time, the codon at position 163 is mutated from AGU to GCC, and the corresponding serine is mutated to alanine. The recombinant virus with mutations in the dual phosphorylation sites of the VP3 protein is rescued by a virus rescue system. The advantages of the present invention are: bioinformatics prediction combined with immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry identification and experimental verification of the specific phosphorylation sites of IBDV VP3, and the mutation of the dual phosphorylation sites of VP3 leads to enhanced IBDV virus replication ability, enhanced dsRNA binding ability, and enhanced auxiliary polymerase activity ability, and can be used as an IBDV candidate vaccine strain.
