The generation and identification of egg yolk antibody (IgY) against capsid protein VP1 of human enterovirus type 71 (EV71)

Objective In order to clone the capsid protein VP1 gene of human enterovirus 71 （ EV71 ）, prokaryotic expression vector PET28a/VP1 was constructed to express VP1 recombinant protein, which was employed to immunize egglaying hens to obtain chicken immunoglobulin Y （IgY）. Methods Vero cells were cultured to proliferate the BrCr strains of EV71 in the cells and then the total RNA were extracted. A gene fragment encoding VP1 was obtained by RT -PCR amplification from EVT1 RNA and the target gene was inserted into cloning vector PGEM -T to extract the recombinant plasmids. The recombinants were double digested by BamHI and EcoRI to obtain gene of interest, which was inserted into prokaryotic expression vector PET28a and then the recombinants underwent simultaneous double digestion by BamHI and EcoRI as well to sequencing identification, and were transformed into the competent engineering bacteria E. coli BI21 （ DE3 ） to obtain positive recombinant engineering bacteria. Expression of fusion protein was induced by IPTG and the protein was purified by kit. Following the VPl identification by SDS - PAGE and Western blotting assays, puri- fied VP1 protein was used to immunize the egg -laying hens and eggs were collected. The IgY antibodies were extracted from these eggs using EGGstract？ IgY Purification System kit. The titre was determined by mediate ELISA and expression level and immunity activity were verified by SDS - PAGE and Western blotting. Results The capsid protein VP1 gene of human EV71 was successfully amplified and positive engineering strains containing recombinant expression plasmid pET28a/VP1 were obtained. Following IPTG induction, these strains could express VP1 fusion protein with high efficiency. Identification of VP1 by SDS - PAGE and Western blotting revealed that the immunized hens generated IgY antibodies against VP1 of human EV71. The egg yolk antibody obtained through immunized hens with VP1 showed a high titre of 1 ： 104. SDS - PAGE and Western blotting confirmed the specific IgY against VP1. Conclusion VP1 gene was successful- ly amplified from BrCr of EV71 and expression vector of PET28a/VPI was constructed, highly efficient fusion protein was obtained and high - efficiency specific IgY aginst VP1 protein was generated following immunization of egg - laying hens, which may provide a foundation for further studies on hand - foot - mouth disease.
