Abstract  

Objective: To construct and verify the neotype gene vaccine eukaryotic expression vector pVAX2 which contains two gene expression cassettes. Methods: The new expression cassette was designed and obtained by artificial chemical synthesis that contains eight elements—Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter, T7 promoter, signal peptide sequences, Hemagglutinin A epitope genes (HA), multiple cloning sites region(MCS),c-myc epitope, Platelet-derived growth factor receptor transmembrane domain (PDGFR-TM) and Bovine growth hormone polyadenylation (BGH polyA). And the restriction enzyme NruⅠwas added to its upstream and downstream, and then it linked with cloning vector pGH to construct pGH-Ⅱ. The pGH-Ⅱ was cutted with NruⅠ,and the fragment (1 300bp) was reclaimed and cloned into the eukaryotic expression vector pVAX1 after removing phosphoryl groups with Alkaline phosphatase to construct the neotype gene vaccine eukaryotic expression vector pVAX2, which was identified with NruⅠand BglⅡ/PstⅠ. To identify the expression ability of pVAX2, the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) genes as report gene was inserted into the difference cassette of the two expression cassettes, and then transfected into BHK-21cells by liposome. The function of pVAX2 was verified by the reverse-transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and fluorescence microscope. Result: The expression of EGFP in both expression cassettes was high efficiency in BHK-21 cells, and didn’t impact each other. Especially, the new expression cassette allowed display of proteins on the cell surface. Conclusion: The eukaryotic expression vector pVAX2 is successfully constructed, which could be used for the research of polyvalency DNA vaccines.
