Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was employed to amplify a cDNA encoding an excretory-secretory (ES) antigen with mol. wt 45-50 kDa by SDS-PAGE from T. spiralis muscle larvae. The PCR product was purified by electrophoresis and sequenced by thermal cycle sequencing with primer walking. The cDNA is 890 bp long and encodes a polypeptide of 255 amino acid (AA) residues. Using the same methods, we also recovered a corresponding cDNA from Trichinella T5, which is 891 bp long and encodes 255 AAs. Comparison of the 2 Trichinella species indicates approximately 2.6% and 2.4% differences between the 2 cDNA sequences and between the 2 deduced AA sequences, respectively.
采用逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)从旋毛虫肌幼虫中扩增出一个编码排泄分泌(ES)抗原的cDNA,该抗原经SDS-PAGE分析分子量为45-50 kDa。PCR产物经电泳纯化,采用引物步移法进行热循环测序。该cDNA长890 bp,编码一个由255个氨基酸(AA)残基组成的多肽。使用相同方法,我们还从旋毛虫T5中获得了一个相应的cDNA,其长891 bp,编码255个AA。两种旋毛虫的比较表明,两个cDNA序列之间以及两个推导的AA序列之间分别存在约2.6%和2.4%的差异。
