Abstract:

This study aims to construct a bait vector pKT25-gp22 and the gene library of Salmonella paratyphi A in bacterial two-hybrid system for further screening study. The gp22 gene was obtained by PCR amplification and then cloned into pKT25 to constitute the bait plasmid pKT25-gp22. The genomic DNA of S. paratyphi A was extracted and partially digested with Sau3AⅠ. The fragments between 250 to1 500 bp were re-natured and ligated to BamHⅠsite of pUT18C plasmid, and the genomic DNA library was obtained. The bait plasmid pKT25-gp22 and pUT18C were co-transformed to BTH101, and the self-activation of bait plasmid pKT25-gp22 and the toxicity of bait protein to the host bacteria were detected. The library plasmids were transformed to JM109 competence and the library diversity was identified by PCR. The results revealed that the bait vector was successfully constructed without self-activation of the transcription of reporter gene and non-toxic to the growth of bacteria. The genomic library covering 8 times of S. paratyphi A genome met the requirements of screening. In conclusion, the bait plasmid pKT25-gp22 and the genomic DNA library of S. paratyphi A were successfully constructed, which can be utilized in bacterial two-hybrid study.
