Abstract  To prevent from and treat for enterotoxemia and gas gangrene and other diseases caused by the alpha -toxin of Clostridium perfringens type A(CPA), the specific bivalent scFv against CPA was constructed and expressed, together with preliminary study on its biological activity. Methods With scFv gene screened from Human phage antibody library against CPA as a template, to introduce connecting peptide G4S or (G4S)3 by primer design and amplify two single chain antibody fragment by PCR, then clone into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a (+). Recombinant plasmid was transformed and expressed in Ecoli BL21 (DE3) by IPTG induction.The expressed protein were purified by column chromatography. Indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect antigen binding activity. To prove the neutralizing potential of the double single chain antibody, alpha-toxin was preincubated with the double single chain and subsequently tested for its lecithinase activity in an egg yolk diffusion turbidity (EYDT) assay, its hemolytic activity in a hemolysis test, and its lethal effect on mice after intravenously administration. Results:Double enzyme digestion and gene sequencing results showed that the sc (Fv) 2-5 and sc(Fv) 2-15 were constructed and expressed correctly. The analysis conducted by 12% SDS-PAGE showed that proteins was expressed in a high level as inclusion bodies and the molecular weight consistent with theoretical value. Indirect ELISA and Western blot detection showed that the sc (Fv) 2-5 and sc(Fv) 2-15 have a strong immune binding activity and that the latter were much better. The activity test in vivo and in vitro indicated that the neutralizing ability of sc(Fv) 2-15 was higher than that of sc (Fv) 2-5 and scFv. Conclusion:Human bivalent single chain antibody against the Alpha-toxin of Clostridium perfringens Type A was successfully prepared, which lay a foundation for further study on the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases caused by this toxin.
