摘　　要：目的制备结核分枝杆菌CFP10-ESAT6融合蛋白,探讨CFP10-ESAT6融合蛋白在结核分枝杆菌免疫诊断中的应用价值。方法 PCR扩增得到CFP-10、ESAT6基因片断,将其先后克隆入pET-28a表达载体。优化表达条件、用镍亲和层析的方法纯化带His标签的重组CFP10-ESAT6融合蛋白(rCFP10-ESAT6)。制备兔多克隆抗体,建立rCFP10-ESAT6为抗原的酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)方法,以健康者血清为对照,检测170例结核患者血清的抗体。结果重组质粒pET28a-CFP10-ESAT6靶基因测序结果与预计设计完全一致。融合蛋白在E.coli BL21(DE3)工程菌中均为可溶性表达,表达量占菌体总蛋白的40%。利用金属螯合亲和层析直接纯化重组蛋白,纯度达到95%以上。Western blot分析表明,重组蛋白能与结核患者血清发生特异性免疫结合反应,与健康者血清不发生反应。CFP10-ESAT6的兔多克隆抗体的效价为1∶8 000,CFP10-ESAT6作为包被抗原的检测结核病人血清中特异性抗体的间接ELISA最佳包被浓度为0.002μg/mL,患者血清的最佳稀释度为1∶500。检测结果与临床诊断的符合率,ELISPOT>ELISA(rCFP10-ESAT6)>ELISA(kit)。结论CFP10-ESAT6融合蛋白具有较高的抗原特异性和免疫反应性,有可能成为结核病免疫学诊断的特异抗原,对结核的诊断具有重要参考价值。ln this study, we prepared the Mycobacterium tuberculosis CFP10-ESAT6 fusion protein and evaluate its poten- tial value for immunodiagnosis of tuberculosis. The cfp-10 and esat6 gene fragments were amplified respectively and cloned into the pET-28a expression vector. Optimized the expression conditions, His-tagged recombinant CFP10-ESAT6 protein （rCFP10- ESAT6） was purified using nickel affinity chromatography. Rabbit polyclonal antibody was prepared to establish rCFP10-ES- AT6 antigen enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） method. We detected 170 tuberculosis sera antibodies and 60 health sera as negative control. Results showed that the recombinant plasmid pET28a-CFP10-ESAT6 target gene sequencing results consisted with the expected design. Soluble expression CFP10-ESAT6 was accounted for 400//oo of the total bacterial protein in E. coli BL21 （DE3）. We used metal chelate affinity chromatography to purify the recombinant proteins directly, which was over 90% purity. Western blot analysis showed the recombinant protein in TB patient sera with specific immune response. CFP10-ESAT6 rabbit polyclonal antibody was in a titer of 1 ： 8 000. The optimal coating concentration of CFP10-ESAT6 as coating antigen-specific antibodies in serum indirect ELISA was 0. 002 μg/mL and the optimal serum dilution was 1 ： 500. Results＇ consistency with clinical diagnosis of three methods was ELISPOT〉ELISA （rCFP10-ESAT6）〉colloidal gold. We es- tablished an indirect ELISA method that CFP10-ESAT6 as a coating antigen for TB antibodies in human serum. CFP10-ESAT6 fusion protein was efficiently expressed in pET28a-CFP10-ESAT6/BL21 （DE3）, which may be a potential immunological diag- nosis of tuberculosis-specific antigens.
