Abstract: The genomic DNA of Mycobacterium bovis Vallee Ⅲ strain was used as template and the genes of ESAT6, MPB63 and HSP65 were amplified by PCR. Then these genes were tandemly inserted into pET-32a(+) to construct recombinant pET-E6-M63-H65. After the transfromation into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells,the fused protein was expressed effectively with 1 mmol/L IPTG induction and purified by Ni2+ purification system for Western blotting analysis. The results showed that the fused proteins were correctly in molecular weight and present in soluble status. Meanwhile, the purified protein can interact with the positive sera to M.bovis, which support important materials for the molecular diagnosis for M.bovis in the future.

Key words: Mycobacterium bovis; fused gene; prokaryotic expression; protein purification
