High-yield production of a chimeric glycoprotein based on permuted E1 and E2 HCV envelope ectodomains.
In this report it is described for the first time the expression and purification of large quantities of a soluble and correctly folded chimeric recombinant protein, E2661E1340, containing the permuted Hepatitis C virus (HCV) glycoprotein ectodomains E1 (amino acids 192-340) and E2 (amino acids 384-661). Using the baculovirus/insect cell expression system, 8mg of secreted protein were purified ...
متن کاملImmunogenic and functional organization of hepatitis C virus (HCV) glycoprotein E2 on infectious HCV virions.
Development of full-length hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNAs replicating efficiently and producing infectious cell-cultured virions, HCVcc, in hepatoma cells provides an opportunity to characterize immunogenic domains on viral envelope proteins involved in entry into target cells. A panel of immunoglobulin G1 human monoclonal antibodies (HMAbs) to three immunogenic conformational domains (designated...
متن کاملIdentification of Aptamer-Binding Sites in Hepatitis C Virus Envelope Glycoprotein E2
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) encodes two envelope glycoproteins, E1 and E2. Our previous work selected a specific aptamer ZE2, which could bind to E2 with high affinity, with a great potential for developing new molecular probes as an early diagnostic reagents or therapeutic drugs targeting HCV. In this study, the binding sites between E2 and aptamer ZE2 were further explored. E2 was truncated to 15...
متن کاملExpression and Purification of HCV Core and Core-E1E2 Proteins in Different Bacterial Strains
Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a main public health problem causing chronic liver infection and subsequently liver cirrhosis and lethal hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Vaccination based on HCV capsid proteins has attracted a special interest for prevention of viral infections. The core protein is a basic and evolutionary most conserved protein, which regulates the cellular processes rel...
متن کاملEvaluation of full length E1 and E2 glycoproteins of HCV expressed in P. pastoris as a protein-based vaccine candidate
Introduction: The development of an effective vaccine against Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is still a target of intensive vaccine research. The HCV envelope proteins E1 and E2 which can induce broadly neutralizing antibodies are the major candidate for this purpose. Different types of expression systems have been used to express these glycoproteins. In this study, an expression system using Pichia p...
