Title: [Construction and expression of single chain Fv gene of anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum]. Author: Song XT, Feng ZQ, Wang ZM, Qiu ZN, Li YQ, Guan XH, Huang HL. Journal: Zhongguo Ji Sheng Chong Xue Yu Ji Sheng Chong Bing Za Zhi; 2002; 20(3):152-4. PubMed ID: 12567991. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To construct single chain Fv (scFv) gene of anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum. METHODS: The heavy and light chain variable region genes of anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum were inserted into two corresponding sites of expression vector pTHA90, and a scFv gene was constructed with a short peptide (Gly4Ser)3 linker gene. The recombinants were determined by digesting with XhoI/SpeI, XbaI/EcoRI and XhoI/EcoRI, and then were introduced into E. coli Top10. The antigen binding activity of expressed product was detected with ELISA. RESULTS: The recombinants were determined by digesting with endonucleases and expected bands were identified. The value of expressed scFv was 3 times higher than negative control by ELISA(OD492 = 1.06). CONCLUSION: The scFv gene of anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum was successfully cloned, and the expressed scFv fragment could interact specifically with antigen NP48.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
