베큘로바이러스 벡터가 uroplakin II promoter, polyhedron promoter, vesicular stomatitis virus G (VSVG), enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP), protein transduction domain (PTD) 등의 유전자로 재조합 되었다. 이렇게 재조합된 베큘로바이러스 벡터들은 여러가지 세포주에 감염을 시켰다. 우리는 이 재조합 벡터와 다른 대조 벡터를 비교하여 유전자 전달과 유전자 발현을 비교하였다. 그 결과 이 재조합 베큘로바이러스 벡터는 대조 벡터에 비하여 유전자 전달과 유전자 발현의 효율이 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

원하는 유전자를 배큘로바이러스의 감염에 의하여 초파리 Drosophila melanogaster S2 세포에 도입하는 배큘로바이러스/S2 세포 발현 시스템은 강력하고 안전한 배큘로바이러스의 장점과 세포가 파괴되지 않는 S2 세포의 장점을 접목한 시스템이다. 본 연구에서는 외래 목적 단백질로 발현 모니터링이 손쉬운 녹색형광단백질(green fluorescent protein)을 발현시키는 재조합 배큘로바이러스를 이용하여 S2 세포에의 감염조건들에 대한 영향 연구를 수행하였다. 재조합 배큘로바이러스의 S2 세포에의 감염조건으로는 multiplicity of infection(MOI), 초기 세포 수, 배큘로바이러스 용액이 세포를 적시는 최소 부피, 배큘로바이러스를 첨가한 후 제거하기까지의 배양시간 그리고 배큘로바이러스 제거 후 S2 세포를 혈청이 존재하는 배지에서 키우는 배양시간을 선정하였다. MOI는 일반적으로 크게 하는 것이 높은 발현 수율을 위하여 좋은 결과를 보였으나 세포배양이 길어지는 경우 세포독성의 문제가 심각해 질 수 있고 실제적인 배양에서는 높은 MOI를 유지하는 것이 불가능하므로 사용하는 100 mm 배양접시에서 배큘로바이러스와 S2 세포가 접촉하는 동안의 변수들인 MOI를 적정의 값인 30으로, 배큘로바이러스 배양 시간을 1.5 시간으로 고정함으로써 배큘로바이러스가 숙주 세포인 S2에 대해 미치는 세포독성을 낮출 수 있었다. 또한, 배큘로바이러스 최소 부피는 배양접시에서 사용부피의 2.4％에서 가장 좋은 결과를 보였으며 배큘로바이러스 용액을 10배 농축시킴으로써 이 부피를 맞추기 위해 첨가시키는 새로운 배지의 비율을 높임으로써 결과적으로 배큘로바이러스에 의한 세포독성을 줄일 수 있었다. 이를 통하여 세포 파쇄 및 배양접시 표면에서 탈착되는 것을 막고 높은 생장 상태를 유지해서 감염 효율도 높일 수 있었다. 배큘로바이러스의 감염이 끝난 후의 관여하는 변수들인 감염 후 배양시간은 24시간에서 최대의 녹색형광단백질의 발현을 나타내었다.

T4 endonuclease V (T4 endo V) [EC 3. 1. 25. 1], found in bacteriophage T4, is responsible for excision repair of damaged DNA. The enzyme possesses two activities: a cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer DNA glycosylase (CPD glycosylase) and an apyrimidic/apurinic endonuclease (AP lyase). T4 denV (414 bp cDNA) encoding T4 en do V (138 amino acid) was synthesized and expressed using either an expression vector, pTriEx-4, in E. coli or a baculovirus AcNPV vector, pBacPAK8, in insect cells. The recombinant His-Tag/T4 endo V (rHis-Tag/T4 endo V) protein expressed from bacteria was purified using one-step affinity chromatography with a HiTrap Chelating HP column and used to make rabbit anti-His-Tag/T4 endo V polyclonal antibody for detection of recombinant T4 endo V (rT4 endo V) expressed in insect cells. In the meantime, the recombinant baculovirus was obtained by cotransfection of BacPAK6 viral DNA and pBP/T4 endo V in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf21) insect cells, and used to infect Sf21 cells to overexpress T4 endo V protein. The level of rT4 endo V protein expressed in Sf21 cells was optimized by varying the virus titers and time course of infection. The optimal expression condition was set as follows; infection of the cells at a MOI of 10 and harvest at 96 h post-infection. Under these conditions, we estimated the amount of rT4 endo V produced in the baculovirus expression vector system to be 125 mg/l. The rT4 endo V was purified to homogeneity by a rapid procedure, consisting of ion-exchange, affinity, and reversed phase chromatographies, based on FPLC. The rT4 endo V positively reacted to an antiserum made against rHis-Tag/T4 endo V and showed a residual nicking activity against CPD-containing DNA caused by UV. This is the first report to have T4 endo V expressed in an insect system to exclude the toxic effect of a bacterial expression system, retaining enzymatic activity.

The VP2 gene of aquatic birnavirus, Korean isolate (GC-1) was cloned and expressed using the baculovirus expression system. The VP2 gene and VP2 partial gene, which contained a neutralizing epitope, were constructed for recombinant transfer vectors, for baculovirus expression. The expressed recombinant proteins were confirmed by indirect immuno fluorescence antibody (IFA), SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The level of expression was checked at regular time using IFA and Western blot. To measure the neutralizing activity of recombinant proteins against GC-1 strain, the antisera against recombinant proteins were produced by using guinea pigs. The result showed that the antisera neutralized the GC-1 strain. However, the neutralizing titer was higher in antisera against the VP2 gene expressed recombinant protein than that of VP2 partial gene recombinant protein.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) E2 protein is known to be one of putative envelope proteins. To develop a sensitive detection method for HCV infected tissues and cells, monoclonal antibodys (MAbs) to the E2 protein of HCV were prepared from mice immunized with recombinant baculovirus-expressing E2 protein (Bac-E2). Several hybridoma clones secreting various levels of MAb were isolated and isotypes of these MAb were determined. One clone (L.2.3.3) was used for ascites production and the E2-MAb was purified and characterized. The L.2.3.3 reacted well with both Bac-E2 and E. coli expressed glutathione-S-transferase-E2 (GST-E2) fusion proteins. Using HCV patient sera, E2 envelope protein was found to be localized in the cell membrane boundary both in CHO cells and insect cells which express HCV E2 protein. Similar result was obtained when same cells were treated with the MAb L.2.3.3. These results demonstrated that Bac-E2 protein is capable of eliciting high titer antibody production in mice.

To determine the sequence and expression of the VP7 gene of Korean isolates (CAU-9), viral RNA was purified and used for cDNA amplification by RT-PCR. The VP7 cDNA was cloned, sequenced, and expressed using baculovirus expression system. The result showed that the sequence homologies CAU-9 compared with foreign isolated strains Wa, 417, TMC-II, 95B and SA11 were ranged from 74.0% to 95.1 % of nucleotide sequence and 35% to 43% of amino acid sequence, respectively. High homology of CAU-9 was observed in Japanease isolates 417 (nucleotide sequence homology was 95.1% and amino acid sequence homology was 43%). To express VP7 gene, the VP7 cDNA was cloned into pCR-Bac vector and inserted into the genome of baculovirus adjacent to the polyhedrin promoter by cotransfection of Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells with wild type baculovirus DNA. In antigenic analysis of Sf9 cells inoculated with the recombinant VP7, immunofluorescence assay revealed positive for viral antigens. In metabolic labeling of Sf9 cell lysates infected with recombinant baculoviruses, it was revealed that the protein of 34 kDa was expressed. The limited study of expressed VP7 protein inoculated with guinea pigs failed to elicit neutalizing antibody. As a results, the sequence analysis and expression of VP7 protein of rotavirus CAU-9 isolated from an infant in Korea could permit the conformation and development of virus like particles which may be useful in designing vaccine strategy.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) core proteins from two different isolates (HCV-1 and HCV-RH) were expressed in Spotioptera Jrugiperda (Sf9) insect cells. The RH core consisted of two major species of proteins (21 kDa and 19 kDa). On the other hand, the HCV-1 core was approximately 16 kDa in a SDS-PAGE gel. Both core proteins were phosphorylated in vivo on serine residues. Furthermore, the RH core but not HCV-1 core formed dimers, indicating that the protein conformation of the core in these two isolates is dfferent from one another. Immunofluorescence studies showed that the RH core was present in the cytoplasm, whereas the HCV-1 core was localized predominantly to the nucleus in recombinant baculovirus-infected insect cells. Since the major difference between the two isolates is the codon 9 of the core protein, a single amino acid substitution appears to play a major role in the protein conformation and these properties may reflect the different biological functions of core proteins in HCV-infected cells.
