We report on the purification of the full-length structural protein encoded by open reading frame 2 (ORF-2) of hepatitis E virus. The ORF-2 protein, expressed in Sf9 cells by using a recombinant baculovirus vector system, was successfully purified to homogeneity. Gel electrophoresis of the purified ORF-2 protein showed a single polypeptide of 75 kDa by Coomassie blue staining and by Western blot (immunoblot) analysis. We demonstrated that the partially purified ORF-2 protein could be used successfully in a sensitive and specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of antibodies to hepatitis E virus.
我们报道了戊型肝炎病毒开放阅读框2(ORF-2)编码的全长结构蛋白的纯化。利用重组杆状病毒载体系统在Sf9细胞中表达的ORF-2蛋白成功纯化至均一。纯化后的ORF-2蛋白经考马斯亮蓝染色和蛋白质印迹(免疫印迹)分析,在凝胶电泳中显示为一条75 kDa的单一条带。我们证明,部分纯化的ORF-2蛋白可成功用于灵敏且特异的酶联免疫吸附测定,以检测戊型肝炎病毒抗体。
