چکیده

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 antigen of influenza virus, thus it is highly topical in influenza research and vaccine engineering programs. alternatively, expression of fragments of the ha (ha1 and ha2) proteins in prokaryotic systems can potentially be the most efficacious strategy for manufacture of large quantities of influenza vaccine in a short period of time. materials and methods: the gene encoding the ha1 protein of  the influenza a/puerto rico/8/34 was amplified by pcr, then cloned into ptz57r/t cloning vector. the fidelity of the ha1 open reading frame was confirmed by bidirectional sequencing, then sub-cloned into pet28a prokaryotic expression plasmid, and proteins containing ha1 n-terminally fused to his-tag were produced in escherichia coli bl21 through iptg inducing. the accuracy of the expression was confirmed by running time coursed fraction samples taken before and after the iptg induction in sds-page, western blot analysis were also used for confirmation of the recombinant protein. results and conclusion: the ha1 protein produced here could be considered and evaluated as a protective antigen, which its immunogenicity potential needs to be assessed in animal models along with proper control groups. moreover, it could be subjected for polyclonal antibody preparation, which, in turn, may be used as an essential material in western blot analyses, as well as in other immunological applications, such as elisa, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry, and other immunological and serological studies. k e y w o r ds: influenza a, h1n1, hemagglutinin, prokaryotic expression

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,...

Expression of HA1 antigen of H5N1 influenza virus as a potent candidate for vaccine in bacterial system

The impending influenza virus pandemic requires global vaccination to prevent large-scale mortality and morbidity, but traditional influenza virus vaccine production is too slow for rapid responses. In this study, bacterial system has been developed for expression and purification of properly folded HA1 antigen as a rapid response to emerging pandemic strains. Here, a recombinant H5N1 (A/Indone...

Expression of Influenza Heamagglutinin Globular Head in Different Eukaryotic Cells

Background and Aims: Influenza (flu) is a respiratory infection in mammals and birds. It is caused by an RNA virus in the family Orthomyxoviridae. The virus is divided into three main types. Influenza virus type A is found in a wide variety of bird and mammal species and can undergo major shifts in immunological properties. Hemagglutinin (HA) is an important influenza virus surface antigen that...

Antigenic Variation of the Haemagglutinin Gene of the Influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 Virus Circulating in Shiraz, February-April 2013

Background: A new pandemic influenza A (H1N1) emerged in April 2009, causing considerable morbidity and mortality. Since mutations in the haemagglutinin (HA) may influence the antigenicity and pathogenicity of the virus, continued epidemiological and molecular characterization for the effective control of pandemic flu and developing of more appropriate vaccine is crucial. Objective: To monitor ...
