Abstract  

Recently, although the passive immunization strategy based on antibody drugs has achieved certain results in the prevention and treatment of HIV, supplement of antibodies is necessary to maintain its long-term effective concentration. The key question is how to prolong the active time of antibodies. Due to the food safety and mucosal colonization stability of lactobacillus, the anti-HIV single-chain antibody fragments were inserted in its expression plasmid with homologous promotor and signal peptide, and plasmid was transformed into competent cells of WCFS1 strains by electroporation. Positive single colonies were screened out by erythromycin, and after culture, the anti-HIV single-chain antibodies were detected to be expressed in the bacterial supernatant and the surpernatant can inhibit the HIV pseudovirus. Compared with the wild-type WCFS1 strain, the growth capacity of the recombinant strain in vitro did not changed and the CFU of the bacterial solution could reach to10 9/ml after 24 hours’ fermentation; the colonization ability of the recombinant strain also did not change obviously, and the each square centimeter of monolayer epithelial cells could bind 10 5CFU colonies. Expressing anti-viral proteins via a live recombinant lactobacillus as host rectal mucosal colonizers gave a new proposal to prevent HIV homosexual transmission.
