摘要
Full length GFLV Coat Protein (CP) gene of Grapevine fanleaf Virus (GFLV) as one of the most destructive viruses of grapevine around the world was amplified from a previously prepared clone Kh4-5-3 with a pair of newly-designed primers. The CP gene was inserted into bacterial expression vector pET-21a (+) and the construct (pET21aGFLV CP) was cloned in Escherichia coli strain Rosetta. Optimization of expression was done by induction with 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2 and 6 mM final concentration of IPTG each for 3, 4, 6 and 16 h. Induction with 1 mM IPTG for 4 h proved to be the most efficient. Expression of the CP was verified with SDS-PAGE, Western blotting and Dot Immunobinding Blot Assay (DIBA) by the use of commercially available anti-GFLV antibody. The expressed CP was purified as the denatured or native protein before using as the antigen for raising anti-GFLV CP antiserum in rabbits. Specificity and titration of the antiserum was determined by Plate-Trapped Antigen Enzyme-Linked Immune Sorbent Assay (PTA-ELISA). Efficiency of the anti-GFLV CP IgG purified from the antiserum was demonstrated in Western blotting and Double Antibody Sandwich (DAS)-ELISA. This is the first report on preparation of polyclonal antibodies against recombinant GFLV CP isolate from Iran and its application in the virus detection. © 2015 Asian Network for Scientific Information.
