摘要: Complementary DNA encoding the ORF5 gene of a Quebec reference isolate (IAF-Klop) porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) was cloned into prokaryotic expression vectors pGEX-4T pET21a to produce ORF5-glutathione S-transferase ORF5-polyhistidine fusion proteins. Five hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) 25 kDa viral envelope glycoprotein (GP5) were obtained from BALB/c mice immunized with affinity chromatography-purified GST-ORF5 protein. The polypeptide specificity these anti-PRRSV MAbs, belonging IgG1 isotype, confirmed by Western immunoblotting assays recombinant native proteins, radioimmunoprecipitation using [35S]methionine-labelled concentrated extracellular virus. All MAbs showed virus-neutralizing (VN) activity, VN titres ranging 1:32 1:128. Two (IAF-1B8 IAF-8A8) reacted similar modified live attenuated vaccine strain ATCC VR-2332, but all five failed react prototype European strain, Lelystad virus, in indirect immunofluorescence tests. results suggest that are directed serotype-specific linear neutralizing epitopes which not affected absence carbohydrate residues.
