piggyBac共转染系统的构建以及转座活性的验证

piggyBac(PB)转座子的末端反向重复序列(ITR)和转座酶编码序列(PBase)分别克隆于质粒PB1156、atub-pBac-K10. ITR与包含红色荧光蛋白表达序列(RFP)的质粒pmCherry-N1重组构成供体质粒(Donor);PBase与真核表达载体pEFrF-PGK重组构成辅助质粒(Helper).使用由供体质粒与辅助质粒组成的PB二元共转染系统转染HEK293细胞,结果表明该二元共转染系统具有较好的转座活性,并且在分子水平验证了转座的发生以及使用反向PCR(IPCR)定位了其中一     

Construction of HIV-1 Virus-like Particle Vaccine

The virus-like particle（VLPs） vaccine is an ideal HIV-1 vaccine, which can simultaneously induce a neutralizing antibody reaction and cell-mediated immunity effectively. In this study, two kinds of plasmids have been used, one can express the HIV-1 main structure proteins, Gagpol and Env, and the other contains an antibiotic gene. The two kinds of plasmids have been cotransfected into 293 cells. A stable cell line that can express Gagpol and Env proteins efficiently and lastingly has been screened. It has been confirmed that Gagpol and Env proteins in the cell culture supernatant can be self-assembled into virus-like particles. The authors have detected the secretion of VLPs in the cell medium, defined the peak of the secretion, and followed and monitored the stability of expression.
