Article Abstract

Objective To prokaryotically express mouse stimulated by retinoic acid gene 8 (Stra8) and prepare rabbit anti-mouse Stra8 polyclonal antibody. Methods The recombinant plasmid pET28a-Stra8 was constructed by cloning technology and identified by double enzyme digestion and sequencing, and then transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). The expression of Stra8 recombinant protein was induced by IPTG. The prokaryotic protein was purified by His-TAG affinity chromatograph and then used to immune New Zealand white rabbits to obtain Stra8 polyclonal antibody. ELISA, Western blot and immunofluorescence assays were used to determine the antibody titer, validity and specificity, respectively. Results The recombinant plasmid pET28a-Stra8 was constructed successfully as double enzyme digestion and sequencing showed, and the prokaryotic protein was expressed and purified effectively. The titer of the polyclonal antibody reached 1:10. Western blotting showed that the polyclonal antibody could specifically recognize native Stra8 protein in the testis. Immunofluorescence assay revealed that the polyclonal antibody had good reactivity, and could recognize Stra8 protein in mouse testis. Conclusion Stra8 prokaryotic protein can be effectively induced in E. coli and specific rabbit anti-Stra8 polyclonal antibody has been prepared.

(PCV2) is the main and primary causative agent of Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS). To date, immunoperoxidase monolayer assay (IPMA), indirect immunofluorescent assay (IFA), and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) are the most commonly diagnostic methods for detecting PCV2 antigens. However, these methods require specialized equipment and technical expertise and are suitable for laboratory use only.

Antibodies are extensively used in biomedical research, clinical fields, and disease treatment. However, to enhance the reproducibility and reliability of antibody-based experiments, it is crucial to have a detailed understanding of the antibody's target specificity and epitope. In this study, we developed a high-throughput and precise epitope analysis method, DECODE (Decoding Epitope Composition by Optimized-mRNA-display, Data analysis, and Expression sequencing).

Alexandrium catenella is an important toxic algal species in the Alexandrium genus, which can form toxic red tides in large numbers. The paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) produced by Alexandrium catenella can seriously endanger human health and threaten the production and development of the aquaculture and fishery industries. Therefore, it is important to explore and develop effective detection and early warning methods for toxic red tides.
