Determination of the optimal conditions of cloning Aerolysin gene from the common carp pathogen Aeromonas hydrophila in Escherichia coli BL21
Authors
Abstract:
Aeromonas hydrophila is a gram-negative bacterium which associated with gastrointestinal diseases and septicaemia. This pathogenic bacterium has several virulence factors ranging from pili to the excreted protein which called (Aerolysin) with minor and major effects, respectively. Additionally, Aeromonas hydrophila is a widely distributed bacterium that commonly causes ulcers in cyprinid fish such as carps and secondary diseases in humans as well. In the present study, characteristics and haemolytic activities of the recombinant Aerolysin protein and optimal conditions for cloning are determined using the synthesized cloning/expression Aerolysin gene, assembled into the Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) through pGEX-6P1 vector, using SDS-PAGE and western blotting techniques. The results declared that, the Aerolysin gene (1482 bp) was cloned by transforming the recombinant pGEX-6P1 vector into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) as a prokaryotic expression host. The SDS-PAGE results indicated that the estimated protein size was 54 KDa. Recombinant Aerolysin protein synthesis at both selected temperatures, 25°C and 37°C, indicated that 1 mM of isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) was the optimum concentration for induction. However, the recombinant protein was unable to synthesize in the absence of IPTG inducer. Western blot analysis indicated the efficient sensitivity and specificity of the recombinant Aerolysin protein. In conclusion, the recombinant protein showed potential advantages for immunoassay approaches in order to decrease the economic losses caused by disease in the aquaculture industry.

Aerolysin is a toxin (protein in nature) secreted by the strains of Aeromonas spp. and plays an important role in the virulence of Aeromonas strains. It has also found several applications such as for detection of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins etc. A. hydrophila is a ubiquitous Gram-negative bacterium which causes frequent harm to the aquaculture. To obtain a significant ...

In this study the forward and reverse primers were designated to amplify the segments (~250 bps and ~650 bps) of the gene coding domains 1 and 4 of aerolysin of Aeromonas hydrophila. These two domains are involved in pathogenesis of the aerolysin gene. Sequences for two restriction enzymes, Pst I and Hind III, were included in the forward and reverse primers respectively. These restriction enz...
