Abstract
The invention relates to the field of a virus, a compound and preparation or purification of the virus, in particular to a chimeric virus of a complete envelope protein of an HCV (hepatitis C virus) and a GB virus B. The chimeric virus is formed by sequentially connecting a 5'-end non-coding region and core protein gene sequence of the GB virus B, a complete envelope protein gene sequence of the HCV and a nonstructural protein and 3'-end non-coding region sequence of the GB virus B, wherein the complete envelope protein gene sequence of the HCV is a complete envelope protein gene sequence of a 1b-genotype HCV. A marmoset monkey can be successfully infected by the virus by carrying out intrahepatic injection and intravenous injection of a primary marmoset monkey serum containing the chimeric virus. The chimeric virus simulates infection and immune states of the HCV in a primate body. A platform for carrying out immunoassay and evaluation on the complete envelope protein of the HCV is provided. The scientific problems of limitation on HCV immunity prevention and treatment research, vaccine evaluation and the like due to shortage of a small primate infection model are solved.
Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of viruses, compositions and their preparation or purification, particularly viruses modified by the introduction of foreign genetic material.
Background
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is one of the main causative agents of acute/chronic Hepatitis transmitted through blood, and the prevalence of HCV infection varies widely around the world, and is most serious in developing countries. Currently, about 1.7 million people worldwide are infected with hepatitis c virus. 50-85% of hepatitis C virus infected patients develop chronic hepatitis, 10-20% of which further develop complex chronic liver diseases such as cirrhosis, and 1-5% of patients develop liver cancer after twenty-three decades. However, there is still a lack of effective therapeutic agents for hepatitis c virus infection, and more seriously, there is no hepatitis c preventive vaccine in the world so far. The research of hepatitis C has not made breakthrough progress until now, and the key factor is that because hepatitis C virus only can infect human and chimpanzee, ideal small primate model infected by hepatitis C virus is lacked, thus greatly limiting the research of immune prevention and treatment of hepatitis C virus.
Hepatitis c virus is a virus of the hepacivirus genus of the flaviviridae family, whose genome consists of structural (core, envelope) and non-structural (protease, helicase, enzyme cofactor) proteins and non-coding regions. The envelope protein (E) dimer (E1E2, containing p7 protein) is directly involved in the interaction with host cells and induces the body to produce neutralizing antibodies and specific cellular immunity, which are main protective antigens. In recent years, cell culture of infectious clones of hepatitis C virus whole genome has succeeded, and the progress of cell culture of hepatitis C virus has been made. However, naturally infected (wild) strains are not yet available for cell culture, and in particular, there is no effective small primate infection model to simulate real hepatitis c virus infection, which still greatly limits the studies on hepatitis c virus immunity.
In the prior art, studies using chimeric viruses have been found in HCV/HIV, HCV/VSV, HCV/YFV, HCV/CSFV, HCV/BVDV and HCV/PV. These constructed HCV chimeric viruses or pseudoviruses (pseudoviruses) are mainly used for studies on interaction between hepatitis c virus proteins and cells, measurement of neutralizing antibodies, gene regulation, and the like. Because these skeletons have no hepatotropic property, they cannot be used in the research of immune prevention and treatment of hepatitis C vaccine.
GB virus B (GBV-B) is a virus that most recently resembles hepatitis C virus, the genus of Hepacivirus of the Flaviviridae family. Unlike hepatitis C virus, GB virus B replicates in small primate marmosets common marmoset (Callithrix jacchuejacacchus) and Pacific monkeys (Tamarin, Saguinus spp) and causes acute or chronic hepatitis. However, the GB virus B still has differences with the hepatitis C virus and cannot completely simulate the infection and immune states of the hepatitis C virus in a primate, so if the genome of the GB virus B is used as a framework, and a functional gene of the hepatitis C virus replaces a corresponding functional region of the GB virus B to construct an HCV/GBV-B chimeric virus, the method is an ideal scheme for researching the immunity of the hepatitis C virus by using an infection model. However, because of the difficulty in replacing the complete functional protein gene of hepatitis c virus into the GB virus B genome and the uncertainty and risk of whether the constructed chimeric virus containing complete functional protein can infect small primates, the current studies using HCV/GBV-B chimeric virus have been found only in replacing the 5' -NCR, p7 or HVR1 of hepatitis c virus of smaller gene segments into the GB virus B genome, and these chimeric viruses containing only short gene segments of hepatitis c virus can only be used to study the functions of these specific gene segments, and cannot show the interaction between hepatitis c virus and host, and cannot fully mimic the immune response of hepatitis c virus in primates. The above protocol for the replacement of 5 '-NCR, p7 or HVR1 of hepatitis C virus into the GB virus B genome is described in Rijnbrand, R.et al, academic GB virus B with 5' nonvariable RNA sequence from a hepatitis C virus genome in tamarins Hepatologys.41, 986-994(2005), Takikawa, S.et al, functional languages of GB virus B p13 protein: development of a recombinant GB virus B hepatitis virus with a p7 protein.

Disclosure of Invention
The technical problem to be solved by the invention is to provide a chimeric virus of complete envelope protein of hepatitis C virus and GB virus B, which can infect marmoset monkeys, simulate the infection and immune state of the hepatitis C virus in primates, and carry out immune prevention and treatment research and vaccine evaluation on the hepatitis C virus.
The chimeric virus is formed by sequentially connecting a 5 'end non-coding region and a core protein gene sequence of GB virus B, a complete envelope protein gene sequence of hepatitis C virus, a non-structural protein and a 3' end non-coding region sequence of GB virus B.
The gene structure and the construction mode of the chimeric virus of the complete envelope protein of the hepatitis C virus and the GB virus B are shown in figure 1. Wherein the GB virus B whole genome consists of a 5 'end non-coding region (5' -NCR), a core protein gene (core), a complete envelope protein gene (E1E2p13), non-structural proteins 2 to 5B (NS2-NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5A-NS5B) gene and a 3 'end non-coding region (3' -NCR). The dotted line represents the replacement of the corresponding region of GB virus B by the complete envelope protein of hepatitis C virus (E1E2p7) gene (shown in shaded area in the figure), and the resulting chimeric virus complete genome of complete envelope protein of hepatitis C virus and GB virus B consists of the noncoding region (5 ' -NCR) and core protein gene (core) of GB virus B5 ', the complete envelope protein gene of hepatitis C virus (E1E2p7), the nonstructural proteins 2 to 5B (NS2-NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5A-NS5B) and the noncoding region (3 ' -NCR) of GB virus B.
The complete envelope protein gene sequence of the hepatitis C virus can be complete envelope protein gene sequences of hepatitis C viruses of different genotypes, and can also be complete envelope protein gene sequences of hepatitis C viruses of different independent sources of the same genotype. The complete envelope protein gene sequence of the hepatitis C virus of the present invention is preferably the complete envelope protein gene sequence of the hepatitis C virus of genotype 1 b. The complete envelope protein gene sequence of 1b genotype hepatitis C virus has 63.2% of nucleotide sequence homology with existing genotypes 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hepatitis C virus, and can represent the complete envelope protein of all genotypes of hepatitis C virus.
When the complete envelope protein gene sequence of the hepatitis C virus is the complete envelope protein gene sequence of the 1b genotype hepatitis C virus, the sequence of the chimeric virus is shown as SEQ ID NO: 1, wherein the 1-913 site is a 5 'end non-coding region and a core protein gene sequence of the GB virus B, the 914-2767 site is a complete envelope protein gene sequence of the hepatitis C virus, and the 2768-9525 site is a non-structural protein and a 3' end non-coding region sequence of the GB virus B.
The chimeric virus of the present invention can be obtained according to a preparation method commonly used in the art, and the method recommended by the present inventors is as follows:
(1) extracting RNA from a 1b type hepatitis C virus serum sample, carrying out RT-PCR reverse transcription to obtain cDNA, carrying out nested PCR amplification on a complete structural protein gene fragment of the hepatitis C virus, and connecting the complete structural protein gene fragment with a pMD-20T vector to obtain a plasmid containing the complete structural protein gene fragment of the hepatitis C virus; wherein the primers for nested PCR amplification are as follows:
the sequence of the upstream outer primer is SEQ ID NO: 2;
the sequence of the downstream outer primer is SEQ ID NO: 3;
