Abstract: This study was aimed to analyze antigenicity of E2 protein of classical swine fever virus (CSFV). The E2 was amplified by RT-PCR from the genomic RNA of CSFV C-strain and cloned into expression vector pET-30a-c(+) to obtain recombinant pET30a-E2. The truncated E2 protein was expressed with high level in transformed Rosetta (DE3) after induction with IPTG. The results of SDS-PAGE and Western blotting indicated that the gene cloned in downstream of pET30a-E2 was expressed in high level and the recombinant fusion protein had immunologically reactive.

Key words: classical swine fever virus; E2 protein; prokaryotic expression; antigenicity
