The invention provides an L
protein mutated recombinant foot-and-mouth
disease virus strain and application thereof in vaccine preparation, and belongs to the technical field of biological
medicine. Firstly, it is found that overexpression of CISD2
protein in host cells can inhibit FMDV replication, and an inhibition mechanism is analyzed, specifically, the CISD2 inhibits FMDV replication by inhibiting expression of L
protein, especially inducing degradation of the L protein through a
proteasome pathway. The invention also identifies a key site for degrading the L protein by the CISD2 protein, the recombinant foot-and-mouth
disease virus with the mutated key
amino acid site of the L protein is successfully constructed and rescued by introducing
amino acid mutation of the key site into the L protein by utilizing a reverse genetic technology, the capabilities of degrading the L protein and inhibiting FMDV replication by the CISD2 protein are eliminated, the
virus titer is improved, and the recombinant foot-and-mouth
disease virus can be used for preparing the recombinant foot-and-mouth disease virus with the mutated key
amino acid site of the L protein. The strain has good production performance and can be used for preparing recombinant foot-and-mouth disease virus strains and recombinant vaccine strains.
