摘要
The nucleocapsid (N) protein of the Toscana (TOS) virus was expressed in Escherichia coli by using a pET15b vector. The recombinant protein was purified by affinity chromatography and was characterized by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, immunoblotting, and enzyme immunoassay (EIA), The recombinant antigen was reactive with positive human sera, and the reactivity correlated very well (r = 0.9) with that of a whole-virus antigen when tested by EIA with 30 TOS virus-positive and 30 TOS virus-negative serum samples. The results demonstrate that the recombinant N protein can be easily produced in a procaryotic system and used for diagnostic assays for TOS virus immunity.
