Abstract
AIM: To prepare a highly specific and efficient egg yolk immunoglubin (IgY) against recombinant vacuolating cytotoxin A-Helicobacter pylori adhesin A (VacA-HpaA) from the yolk of hen's eggs.
METHODS: Recombinant bacteria of pQE30-VacA-HpaA-DH5α was cultured in large numbers to get VacA-HpaA fusion protein. The recombinant protein was purified by Ni2+-NTA column chromatography and used to immunize the hens. The VacA-HpaA IgY was extracted from the yolk of hen's eggs by water-dilution methods. In order to evaluate the relationship between IgY titer and immune time, the titer of IgY was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). IgY was purified and concentrated by deposition technique with ammonium sulfate. The purity of IgY was analyzed by SDS-PAGE, and protein content of IgY was checked by Bradford method. The specificities of VacA-HpaA IgY to the antigens of VacA and HpaA were identified by Western blotting.
RESULTS: The recombinant protein was mainly expressed as inclusion body. The content of fusion protein was 0.72 g/L. VacA-HpaA IgY from eggs' yolk of hens immunized with the fusion protein could react with the fusion protein. The titer of VacA-HpaA IgY was increased with the immune time. After purification and concentration, the purity of VacA-HpaA IgY was about 60%; the titer was 1∶128 000; And the concentration of IgY was 22 g/L. Western blot exhibited the protein bands with molecular weight of 27 000 and 30 `000. The titer of VacA-HpaA IgY to VacA and HpaA were 1∶3200 and 1∶6400 (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: VacA-HpaA-IgY with high concentration, purity, and specificity is successfully prepared.
