چکیده

background and aims: influenza a virus of orthomyxoviridae family is able to create pandemic influenza. vaccination is the most effective way to prevent influenza virus infection. matrix protein 2 (m2) is a homotetramer ion channel with 97 amino acids length and highly conserved among influenza viruses and is considered for development of a universal influenza vaccine. materials and methods: we present here cloning and expression of influenza a virus m2 protein as a fusion with 6-his tag in escherichia coli bl21 strain. the gene was amplified by pcr and ligated into the prokaryotic expression vector pet28a. the expression of m2 protein was induced by iptg and confirmed by sds-page and western blotting. the desired protein was purified with affinity chromatography on a ni-ted resin column and has to be evaluated in animal models for further studies. results: the results of sequencing showed that m2 gene was cloned in pet28a properly in frame to histidine tag and the product was confirmed by xpreimmune reaction of monoclonal anti-m2 antibody to recombinant m2 in western blotting. conclusion: this study might provide a basis for production of a universal and broad-spectrum human influenza vaccine.

Prokaryotic Expression of Influenza A virus Nucleoprotein Fused to Mycobacterial Heat Shock Protein70

Background and Aims: The novel approaches in influenza vaccination have targeted more conserved viral proteins such as nucleoprotein (NP) to provide cross protection against all serotypes of influenza A viruses. Influenza specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) are able to lyse influenza-infected cells by recognition of NP, the major target molecule in virus for CTL responses. On the other hand,...

Influenza A Virus M2 Ion Channel Protein:

A structure-function analysis of the influenza A virus M2 ion channel protein was performed. The M2 protein of human influenza virus A/Udorn/72 and mutants containing changes on one face of the putative a helix of the M2 transmembrane (TM) domain, several of which lead to amantadine resistance when found in virus, were expressed in oocytes of Xenopus laevis. The membrane currents of oocytes exp...

Immunologic Evaluation of DNA Vaccine Encoding Influenza Virus M2 Gene in Type A- Influenza Mice Model

Abstract Background and Objective: The M2 gene expressing the conserved protein in influenza virus can be used to make a single-dose vaccine with permanent immunity. Material and Methods: The mice were allocated to one case group immunized with pcDNA3-M2 and two control groups with pcDNA and PBS, in three dozes with interval of two weeks. Two weeks after the last injection, Cellular imm...

prokaryotic expression of h1n1 influenza a virus haemagglutinin protein globular domain (ha1)

background: influenza viruses are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. the influenza virus pandemics, 1918, 1977, and especially the most recent one, a/h1n1/2009, made evident the need for generating recombinant influenza h1n1 antigens which are essential to develop both basic and applied research programs. among influenza virus proteins, haemagglutinin (ha) is a major surface antige...
