To expose the cat recombinant allergen Fel d 1 protein on the outer surface of hepatitis B core antigen(HBcAg)virus-like particles(VLPs), the recombinant Fel d 1(rFel d 1)was created by linking the two genes chain 1 and chain 2 that composed the Fel d 1 protein. Then the rFel d 1 sequence was inserted into the HBcAg c/e1 loop area, replacing the amino acids between D78 and E83 in HBcAg c/e1 loop area. We successfully constructed the prokaryotic expression vector pET28a-HBcAg-rFel d 1 via gene codon optimization and synthesis. The recombinant plasmid pET28a-HBcAg-rFel d 1 was transformed into E.coli BL21(DE3)cells, then induced by IPTG, purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography and tested by SDS-PAGE, Western blotting and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The fusion protein HBcAg-rFel d 1 was expressed successfully in E. coli expression system and the pure fusion protein HBcAg-rFel d 1 was purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. Further, TEM confirmed the fusion protein HBcAg-rFel d 1 could assemble into VLPs. The fusion protein HBcAg-rFel d 1 could assemble into VLPs spontaneously, which laid a solid foundation for the research of the preventive and therapeutic vaccines for cat allergy.

In eukaryotes,the regulation of gene expression plays an important role in the growth and development of organisms which is a multistep process that involves the transcription,translation and turnover of messenger RNAs(mRNA)and proteins.Researches have showed that the 3'untranslated region(3'UTR)of mRNA is emerging as critically important in regulating gene expression at post transcriptional levels.mRNA stability,localization and translation are largely determined by sequences in the 3'UTR.The aberrant regulation of 3'UTR will result in aberrant levels of expressed protein, enhancing metabolic changes and leading to disease.The researches of 3'UTR in the regulation of gene expression,human diseases and animal production were summarized and discussed in this paper to provide the reference for applications of 3'UTR in human disease diagnosis and treatment and animal performance.

In order to study the effects of storage conditions on survival and migration of three kinds of Salmonella,S.enteritidis,S.typhimurium and S.pullorum were artificially contaminated on eggshell.Different environment temperatures(4,25 and 37℃)and relative humidity(50% and 90%)were seted,and the number of Salmonellas on the surface of eggshell and egg contents were counted and detected on various time points.The results showed that 4℃ obviously reduced the number of three kinds of Salmonellas.At 50% RH,the number of three kinds of Salmonellas were reduced on eggshell surface at 25 and 37℃ environment.At 90% RH,despite the individual time points,the number of S.enteritidis and S.typhimurium presented downward trend at 25℃.And at the 37℃,the number of S.pullorum rapidly reduced,and the number of S.enteritidis and S.typhimurium firstly decreased and then increased,and finally maintained at the level of inoculated magnitude.The results of egg content detection showed that S.enteritidis and S.typhimurium were more likely to be detected in high temperature and high humidity environment,while S.pullorum was not detected in all kinds of experimental environment.The results suggested that low temperature and low humidity reduced Salmonellas survival on eggshell and inhibited it migration into the egg,and high temperature and high humidity could promote Salmonellas proliferation,increase the risk of its penetration into egg.There were some differences in the survival on eggshell and invasion between the different serotypes Salmonellas.
