Abstract:

To explore the mechanism of MHCⅠ molecule in immune response,chicken MHCⅠα and β2m genes were cloned by PCR.Then the fragments were inserted into the eukaryotic expression vector with fluorescent protein,and the recombinant plasmids pEGFP-MHCⅠα and pmCherry-MHCⅠβ2m were constructed.The recombinant plasmids were transfected into 293T cell with lipofectin reagent.The gene products of recombinant plasmids were mainly located to endomembrane system of the cells by fluorescence microscopy,and changed the intracellular localization of the fusion with the fluorescent protein.Moreover,the positive reactions were observed by the method of Western blotting,and the proteins had the molecular weight of 68.3 and 41.3 ku,respectively,in accord with the target proteins.The results showed that the recombinant plasmids were expressed in 293T cells with a good immunological activity,and the proteins had the binding reaction with specific antibodies.

Key words: chicken MHCⅠα gene; chicken MHCⅠβ2m gene; eukaryotic expression vector; 293T cell
