Construction and expression of the eukaryotic expression plasmid encoding mycobacterium tuberculosis MPT64
Objective:To construct the recombinant eukaryotic plasmid encoding Mycobacterium tuberculosis MPT64 and detect its expression in COS-7 cell lines. Methods: The gene encoding MPT64 was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from H37Rv genome
and the fragment was inserted into pcDNA3.1(+) after restriction endonuclease digestion .The recombinant plasmid pcDNA MPT64 was transfected into COS-7 cell lines with liposome
and expressed MPT64 in COS-7 cell was detected by RT-PCR
ELISA and dot blotting. Results: The sequence of MPT64 gene in recombinant plasmid was the same as that of reported
and recombinant MPT64 protein was expressed in COS-7 cell lines.Conclusion: The recombinant plasmid pcDNA MPT64 was constructed successfully
and MPT64 protein expressed in COS-7 cell has antigenicity.The results established the basis for further studies on MPT64 function.
