运用酵母双杂交系统筛选与埃博拉病毒GP、VP30、NP、L蛋白存在相互作用的宿主蛋白

目的 运用酵母双杂交技术从人肝cDNA文库中筛选出与埃博拉病毒(EBOV)GP、VP30、NP、L蛋白存在相互作用的宿主蛋白,用于研究GP、VP30、NP、L蛋白在EBOV传染病中的生物学功能.方法 利用重组PCR技术构建诱饵质粒pGBKT7-GP、pGBKT7-VP30、pGBKT7-NP、pGBKT7-L,将诱饵菌株与人肝cDNA文库菌株进行杂交筛选,对筛选到的阳性克隆进行DNA测序和生物信息学分析,然后再利用酵母回复性实验进一步验证,排除假阳性结果.结果 成功构建了诱饵质粒pGBKT7-GP、pGBKT7-VP30、pGBKT7-NP、pGBKT7-L,筛选出6个可能与GP、VP30、NP、L蛋白有相互作用的宿主蛋白,分别是COMMD1、ALB、PSMD8、APOA2、CYP2E1、HP.酵母回复性实验进一步说明了COMMD1和APOA2与NP蛋白可能存在相互作用.结论 酵母双杂交筛选出多个可能与EBOV的GP、VP30、NP、L蛋白存在相互作用的捕获蛋白,为研究EBOV的致病机制提供了参考.

Screening of host proteins interacting with GP,VP30, NP,and L proteins of Ebola virus by yeast two-hybrid system

Objective To study the biological function of GP,VP30,NP and L proteins in Ebola virus(EBOV) infectious diseases,and to screen the host proteins which interact with GP,VP30,NP,and L proteins of EBOV from human liver cDNA library using yeast two-hybrid technique.Methods Recombinant PCR was used to construct bait plasmids pGBKT7-GP,pGBKT7-VP30,pGBKT7-NP and pGBKT7-L.Bait strains were combined with human liver cDNA library strains.The positive clones were analyzed by DNA sequencing and bioinformatics.A yeast recovery experiment was performed to further verify and exclude false positive results.Results We constructed bait plasmids pGBKT7-GP,pGBKT7-VP30,pGBKT7-NP and pGBKT7-L with the recombinant PCR method.Six host proteins which could interact with GP,VP30,NP,and L proteins were screened,including COMMD1,ALB,PSMD8,APOA2,CYP2E1,and HP.The yeast recovery experiment proved that COMMD1 and APOA2 might interact with NP protein.Conclusion A number of prey proteins which interact with GP,VP30,NP,and L proteins of EBOV are screened,which may provide reference for the research of EBOV.
