Abstract:

In order to express non-structural protein NS1 of epidemic encephalitis type B,NS1 gene of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) P3 strain was amplified by PCR method,and the prokaryotic expressing vectors were constructed by homologous recombination that fusion expressed His or GST tag in this study.The correct plasmids tested by PCR,enzyme digestion and sequencing were transformed into E.coli BL21,and NS1 fusion proteins were induced by IPTG.The proteins were identified using SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and Western blotting,and purified by urea modified and renaturation and affinity chromatography of nickel.The results indicated that two prokaryotic expression vectors of NS1 pET-42b-NS1 and pGEX-KG-NS1 were constructed successfully,and the length of NS1 gene of P3 strain was 1 056 bp,which expressed about 40 ku protein in the form of inclusion body,the degeneration and renaturation effect of urea was better,and NS1 protein had high purity and concentration by nickel affinity chromatography.JEV NS1 gene could express the protein with high purity through prokaryotic expression system,and which laid a foundation for the later biological function research.
