Description

Mycobacterium tuberculosis secretory protein LprA monoclonal antibody and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to a mycobacterium tuberculosis secretory protein LprA monoclonal antibody and application thereof.
Background
Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB), is the first cause of death of a single infectious source, and is also the 13 th leading cause of death worldwide. According to the WHO estimation, the latent tuberculosis infection population in the world is nearly 20 hundred million. In 2020, 987 thousands of tuberculosis patients are newly added all over the world.
Nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) refers to a general term for other Mycobacteria in the genus Mycobacterium except for Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex (MTC) and Mycobacterium leprae, and is also called environmental Mycobacteria. Nontuberculous mycobacteria disease (NTM disease) refers to a disease that causes a lesion of a relevant tissue or organ due to infection with NTM. NTM is an environmental pathogenic bacterium, is ubiquitous all over the world, is most common in soil and water, and is most closely related to human infection. According to the epidemiological development law, with the increasing control degree of TB in one country or region, the proportion of NTM diseases in mycobacteria-related diseases will gradually increase. In recent years, NTM disease is rapidly increasing and has become one of the important public health problems threatening human health.
The NTM disease is difficult to diagnose, and the breakthrough of the laboratory diagnosis technology is the key. The existence and the increasing incidence of NTM diseases increase the difficulty and the complexity of tuberculosis disease control. Clinical symptoms and pathological changes and imaging characteristics of the NTM disease have many similarities with TB, and the clinical symptoms and pathological changes and imaging characteristics of the NTM disease are usually difficult to identify and are always in an underestimated or even overlooked state. Clinicians often diagnose tuberculosis based on the smear "acid-fast bacillus positive", ignoring differential diagnosis for NTM disease. 15% -20% of smear positive tuberculosis patients in the southeast coastal region of China are identified as NTM diseases in the follow-up. Moreover, most NTM strains are naturally resistant to common antituberculosis drugs, so that the NTM disease is easy to be misdiagnosed as drug-resistant tuberculosis clinically. Despite the problems described above, techniques for identification of mycobacterial species are very poor at home and abroad and the prior art relies on the presence of bacteria in specimens. Some techniques require that the bacteria be identified after they have been cultured, and are therefore very time consuming, requiring at least one week for fast growing Mycobacteria (RGM) and 1-2 months for Slow Growing Mycobacteria (SGM). For the 'bacteria negative' patients with no bacteria found in the specimen, no technology can realize the differential diagnosis of tuberculosis and NTM diseases at present, and the identification of the strains of mycobacteria is more impossible. In clinical practice, NTM patients who have not developed a strain identification or who are waiting for identification results, and who are myconegative, are treated in most cases as TB and are treated with an ineffective anti-tuberculosis regimen.
Therefore, the differential diagnosis method which has higher specificity, is rapid to research and develop and can distinguish the NTM disease and the tuberculosis has important significance and wide application prospect for the screening, diagnosis and treatment of the NTM disease, the control of the tuberculosis and the avoidance of the interference of the NTM to the diagnosis of the tuberculosis.

The secreted proteins in the culture filtrates of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB) and the most frequently isolated pathogenic NTM in clinic (including 3 SGM: M. Kansaii, M.avium, M.intracellulare strain; 2 RGM: M.fortuitum and M.abscessus) standard strains were identified by the Label free proteomics technique, and found: (1) Both MTB and m.kansasii (mycobacterium kansasii) express lipoprotein LprA at high levels; (2) The M.avium complex (including M.avium and M.intracellulare) does not express LprA; (3) Neither Mycobacterium fortuitum nor Mycobacterium abscessus secrete LprA. In the alignment of homologous sequences to lipoproteins, (1) the general absence of the LprA homologous sequence in RGM was found; (2) In SGM, the avian intracellular mycobacterial complex does not encode the LprA protein; (3) Common SGMs such as m.kanasaii, m.marinum (mycobacterium marinum), and m.gordonae (mycobacterium gordonae) have LprA homology proteins, and all of them have LprA homology of about 80% with MTB. However, the amino end of the LprA protein is close to 50 amino acids, and the difference is very obvious among different SGM strains, and the homology is only between 45% and 50%. Thus, lprA is a secreted protein identified as a potential mycobacterium species.
Currently, the MPT64 secretory protein is mainly clinically used as a target point to diagnose the mycobacterium tuberculosis in culture positive filtrate supernatant. However, some of the clinical isolates of M.tuberculosis were missed because MPT64 was deleted or mutated and could not be detected. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new specific secretory antigen of mycobacterium tuberculosis as a target in clinical practice to supplement the deficiencies of the existing diagnostic techniques. The inventor of the application finds that the LprA is a potential secretory protein for identifying mycobacterium species for the first time through extensive and intensive research, prepares a monoclonal antibody and a polyclonal antibody aiming at the LprA protein by using the LprA protein as an antigen, can be specifically combined with the LprA protein, has good specificity, further establishes a double-antibody sandwich ELISA method based on the LprA to identify the mycobacterium positive culture solution, and realizes the rapid identification of mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacterium.

In the alignment of homologous sequences to lipoproteins, it was found that (1) the RGM is generally deficient in the LprA homologous sequence; (2) In SGM, the avian intracellular mycobacterial complex does not encode the LprA protein; (3) Common SGMs such as m.kanasaii, m.marinum (mycobacterium marinum), and m.gordonae (mycobacterium gordonae) have LprA homology proteins, and all of them have LprA homology of about 80% with MTB. However, the amino end of the LprA protein is close to 50 amino acids, and the difference is very obvious among different SGM strains, and the homology is only between 45% and 50%.
