摘　　要：为了探讨风疹病毒包膜糖蛋白E1中二硫键对风疹病毒细胞融合活性的影响,在构建重组载体pBSK-SPE2E1的基础上,利用PCR定点突变与体内同源重组相结合的方法,构建了11个突变体,分别将E1外功能区的11个半胱氨酸残基突变为其它氨基酸残基,从而去除一个二硫键,利用Giemsa染色法定性检测由此引起的细胞融合情况,流式细胞术检测导入的外源DNA在细胞表面的表达效率,血吸附检测重组表达的突变体蛋白的受体识别活性。结果表明E1外功能区的10个二硫键对RV的细胞融合活性都有重要影响,任何一个二硫键的去除均导致E1的细胞融合活性丧失;其中第5和第8个半胱氨酸残基所形成的二硫键与E2和E1的相互作用有关,第3、第4和第13个半胱氨酸残基所形成的二硫键可能直接影响E1的细胞融合功能。To reveal the effects of disulfide bridges in rubella virus glycoprotein E1 on the membrane fusion activity, the recombinant plasmid pBSK-SPE2E1 and site-directed mutagenesis to mutate 11 cysteines individually in the ectodomain of E1 to remove a disulfide bridge from the wild-type E1 were constructed. All mutants and the wild-type plasmid were expressed on BHK-21 cell. Giemsa Staining was used to show the polykaryon formed in the transfected BHK-21 cells. The cell surface expression efficiency of the plasmids was assayed with fluorescence-activated cell sorter （FACS）. Hemadsorption was performed to detect the receptor recognition activity of the recombinant plasmids. The results showed that all the 10 disulfide bridges in the ectodomain of E1 played an important role in the process of the membrane fusion. The removal of any disulfide bridge resulted in the loss of the fusion activity. The disulfide formed by the 5th and the 8th cysteine might be critical for the interaction of E1 and E2. While the disulfide bridges formed by the 3rd, the 4th, and the 13th might influence the membrane fusion activity of E1 directly.
