Abstract: This experiment is aimed to study the antigenicity of VP2 protein(amino acid 155-439)of porcine parvovirus type 1(PPV1)for laying a base for the development of detecting PPV1. The 849 bp target fragment was amplified using the DNA of strain AV31of PPV1 as the template. The product was cloned into pET30a(+)vector,and recombinant plasmid pET30a-PPV1-VP2(amino acid 155-439)was constructed,then transferred into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)for the 6 h induced expression by IPTG. The recombinant protein was purified by Ni-NTA,and refolded by different concentration of urea. The results of SDS-PAGE showed that the gene VP2 was successfully expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3)with a relative molecular weight of 39 kD. The results of Western blot showed that this recombined protein specifically reacted with PPV1 positive serum,while no cross reaction with NA-PRRSV and PCV2 positive serum. This study achieved the aims:the recombinant vector pET30a-PPV1-VP2 was successfully constructed,and the gene was successfully expressed in E. coli,and the purified and re-folded protein demonstrated promising reactinogenicity .
