The invention discloses a BCG3973
gene knocked-down recombinant
bacillus calmette guerin vaccine strain as well as a construction method and application thereof. According to the invention, a CRISPRi / dCas9th1 technology is utilized to block
RNA polymerase movement in space through a compound formed by crRNA, dCas9
protein and sgRNA at a transcriptional level, so that the expression of the BCG3973
gene in the
BCG vaccine is inhibited. After being treated by the recombinant bacillus calmette guerin
bacterial strain, the immune-related pathways of macrophages, such as a
cytokine-
cytokine receptor action pathway, a Ca < + + >
signal pathway and pathways such as PPAR and JAK-STAT, are obviously increased, and IL-1beta, TNF-alpha,
antiviral protein and
calmodulin with higher levels are expressed, so that the recombinant bacillus calmette guerin
bacterial strain has stronger bactericidal ability on
escherichia coli. Mouse in-vivo experiments show that the recombinant bacillus calmette-guerin
bacterial strain has a very good protection effect on
escherichia coli infection and endotoxemia caused by
lipopolysaccharide, and shows higher
survival rate and stronger capability of eliminating
heterologous substance infection under
attack of a
lethal dose of
Candida albicans.
