CML28树突状细胞核酸疫苗的构建及其表达研究

为了构建负载CML28的核酸疫苗，并在树突状细胞中进行表达，用分子克隆的方法，从K562细胞中克隆出CML28的cDNA全长，将其亚克隆至pGEM—T载体，经测序后酶切，克隆至真核表达载体pcDNA3．1HisA，将重组质粒pcDNA3．1HisA—CML28进行酶切分析和测序鉴定；从正常人外周血中分离外周血单个核细胞（PBMC），在IL-4和GM—CSF条件下诱导分化为树突状细胞（DC），并进行鉴定；用电穿孔的方法将重组质粒pcDNA3.1 HisA—CML28导入到DC中，Western Blot检测His-CML28融合蛋白的表达。结果表明：经酶切分析和测序鉴定，重组质粒pcDNA3.1 HisA—CML28含有正确的CML28全长序列；经电穿孔导入Dc后，重组质粒能表达His—CML28蛋白。结论：成功构建了CML28树突状细胞核酸疫苗。

Construction and Expression of Dendritic Cell Nucleic Acid Vaccine Containing CML28 Gene in Human Dendritic Cells

This study was aimed to construct nucleic acid vaccine containing the coding region of the CML28 gene and to express it in human dendritic cells. The full length of CML28 cDNA was amplified from K562 by RT-PCR and subcloned into pGEM-T vector. The CML28 fragment was digested and subsequently inserted into the EcoRI-Xba I sites of pcDNA3.1HisA to construct the recombinant expression vector pcDNA3.1HisA-CML28, which was identified by restrition analysis and sequencing. Human dendritic cells (DC) were separated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by culture with rhGM-CSF, rhIL-4 and assessed by flow cytometry. The constructed plasmid pcDNA3.1 HisA-CML28 was transfected into DC by electroporation. Western blot was used to detect the expression of fusion protein His-CML28. The results showed that recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1HisA-CML28 contained the correct full CML28 cDNA identified by restriction analysis and sequencing, and can express the fusion protein His-CML28 in DCs. It is concluded that nucleic acid vaccine containing CML28 gene was constructed and expressed in DC successfully.
