Description

Treponema pallidum recombinant antigen, preparation and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of treponema pallidum immunodetection, and particularly relates to a treponema pallidum recombinant antigen, and preparation and application thereof.
Background
Treponema Pallidum (TP) is also known as treponemiallidium pallidum and is the causative agent of syphilis, a venereal disease, and serological methods are commonly used clinically to detect the infection of treponema pallidum. Conventionally, detection of anti-cardiolipin antibodies using non-specific lipid antigens (cardiolipin) has been used as a marker for treponema pallidum infection, such as the Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) method, the unheated serum response test (USR), and the rapid plasma response cycle test (RPR). These methods are sensitive but not specific and have false positive reactions, so that they require further confirmation tests.
Specific detection methods using treponema pallidum as an antigen include a treponema pallidum fluorescent antibody adsorption test (FTA-ABS) and a treponema pallidum hemagglutination Test (TPHA), and the specificity and the sensitivity are high. However, because of the difficulty in culturing treponema pallidum, the cost of the reagent is high, and because the treponema pallidum antigen is complex, the treponema pallidum antigen can still have a certain nonspecific reaction with other pathogens, especially similar spirochaete diseases (such as yasis).
In view of the above situation, scientists have begun to use recombinant proteins as antigen-specific assays. With the development of scientific technology, the whole genome sequence of syphilis has been determined, and with the development of gene cloning technology, immunoassay methods using syphilis recombinant proteins as antigens have been applied successively, such as immunocapture eia (ce) assay, double antigen sandwich assay, and the like.
At present, immunological test methods for treponema pallidum mainly utilize enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, chemiluminescence assay, gold-labeled chromatography and the like based on the principle of a double-antigen sandwich method.
The principle of the TP double antigen sandwich method is as follows: coating a first antigen (namely a coating antigen) on a solid phase support, adding a sample to be detected, introducing a second antigen (namely a labeling antigen) labeled with a special label in a proper mode, forming a sandwich structure of coating antigen-TP antibody-labeling antigen by using TP antibody and the two antigens if the TP antibody exists in the sample, and amplifying a signal by using the label on the labeling antigen to obtain a final judgment result.
The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the chemiluminescence assay have the advantages of high sensitivity and high accuracy, but are not suitable for point-of-care testing (POCT) because of long detection time, complex operation, multiple instruments and high quality requirement of detected samples.
Therefore, the simple, rapid, specific and high-sensitivity gold-labeled chromatography detection method is developed and applied in the detection of the treponema pallidum.
However, the gold-labeled chromatography method is high in sensitivity and good in specificity, and the key point is the quality of the coated antigen, and the performance of the coated antigen has a decisive influence on the accuracy of the immunoassay. Therefore, in the case of the solid phase carrier and the coating method, the quality of the prepared coated antigen is determined by the characteristics of the antigen, and the high quality antigen needs to have the following conditions:
the protein is adsorbed on a solid phase carrier in the immunochromatography detection, and as a capture reagent of a sample to be detected, the detection result greatly depends on the good adsorption effect of the capture reagent on the solid phase carrier, so that the uniform and good adsorption of the protein on the solid phase carrier is very important for the detection result. The different structures and different charges of the antigens have great influence on the adsorption effect.
And (II) the specificity is good, the antigen specificity greatly depends on the selected antigen and epitope, whether the antigen is correctly folded in the expression process and the antigen purity, and once the epitope is improperly selected or the protein purity cannot reach the standard, the detection result can be missed or false positive.
(III) the stability is good, and the antigen with poor stability is usually reduced in activity due to aggregation or degradation; the antigen with good stability is not easy to reduce the activity no matter stored in a buffer system or coated on a solid phase carrier under certain extreme conditions.
The problems that the detection result is not ideal, the detection line dispersion phenomenon caused by poor adsorption effect exists, the sensitivity is low, the specificity is poor, and the stability experiment is unqualified are generally solved at present.
The above problems are usually solved by selecting different antigen dominant epitopes for chimeric expression or by adding various stabilizers or protective agents to the buffer system. However, both methods have disadvantages, and various epitopes are chimeric and expressed, so that inclusion bodies are easily formed in the expression process, which causes wrong protein folding, and the reduction of activity causes missed detection of results or complete loss of activity; when a plurality of stabilizing agents or protective agents are added to coat the solid phase carrier, the membrane surface of the solid phase carrier is not clean in the climbing process, or the problems of false positive and the like are caused, so that the detection result is interfered.
Disclosure of Invention

From the following table, it can be seen that the false positive rate of TP17 is 0.5%, the false positive rate of TP17S is 0.45%, the false positive rate of TP34S is 0.15%, the detection rate of positive samples TP17 is 98%, the detection rate of TP17S is 98%, and the detection rate of TP34S is 100%. Specific sorting: TP34S is more than or equal to that of the contrast bar, and more than or equal to TP17S is more than or equal to that of TP 17. The pGEX-4T-1 vector has a GST tag, the GST tag can cover a part of antigen epitope, and the TP34S adds a section of TP17S sequence on the basis of TP17S, so that the covered antigen epitope can be supplemented, the omission can be reduced, the positive detection rate can be improved, and meanwhile, the cysteine forming a disulfide bond is mutated through self-design, and the false positive problem caused by protein aggregation is reduced. TP34S specificity was significantly improved over the other recombinant antigens and was superior to the coating antigen used in the control strips.

(3) Stability of
The recombinant antigen is diluted to working concentration, examined at 37 ℃ for 7 days respectively, taken out and coated on an NC membrane, and prepared into a colloidal gold test strip together with an outsourcing gold label pad, and then the colloidal gold test strip and the recombinant antigen stored at 4 ℃ simultaneously detect the same negative and positive quality control serum under the same condition, and the result is shown in table 5. After the recombinant antigen is coated on an NC membrane, a destructive experiment is carried out for 7 days at 55 ℃, test paper strips are prepared and then placed at room temperature for comparison and detection of the same negative and positive quality control serum, and the results are shown in Table 6. Experiments show that the recombinant antigen has good liquid stability at 37 ℃ and no obvious difference, and the disruption experiment of immobilizing the recombinant antigen on an NC membrane at 55 ℃ shows that the recombinant antigen TP34S is superior to TP17 and TP 17S.
