Abstract  

Porcine circovirus type 2(PCV2)Cap gene has been used as target gene for developing genetic engineering vaccine. However, it is usually expressed as the form of inclusion body in E.coli which having low protective efficacy against PCV2 challenge. The PCV2 ORF2 gene condons was optimized and fused with MPG gene. Then, they were cloned into expression vector pET28a and induced for expression in E.coli BL21(DE3) individually. SDS-PAGE and Western blot results confirmed that they could be expressed with the production of soluble proteins. After purification, the two kinds of proteins were mixed with GEL01, ISA206 and ISA15A adjuvant respectively. Mice experiment results showed that the GEL01 groups induced the highest levels of antibodies against PCV2 with ELISA and neutralization antibody assay. Following challenge with PCV2, the PCV2 virus loads in spleen in immunized groups except the ISA15A were significantly lower than challenge control group. It indicated that the vaccine prepared by the two recombinant proteins and GEL01 and ISA206 could induce immune protection in mice against PCV2 infection, which laid a foundation for the development of PCV2 subunit vaccine.
